GEN: Fantastic Book every librarian should read!!!

[Terri Lent <Tlent@AOL.COM>]

Dear LN_NETters,

I just found a book which has made a huge difference in my professional life
and think everyone concerned about getting kids to read should own!  It's
called "Speaking of Reading" and I'll give more information at the end of
this message.  It's a collection of reflections by all kinds of readers
including Adults Learning to Read and Frustrated Readers.  It has certainly
opened my "voracious reading" mind to what it is like to be a non-reader,
affirmed the importance of my role in promoting reading and gave me insights
in how to encourage and promote reading as important and necessary for ALL!

Speaking of Reading by Nadine Rosenthal

Enjoy!!!
