Hello everyone! Sorry this hit has taken me so long to post. I thank everyone who responded to my question. You were all very helpful. I am going to make a list of some of the responses I received. Good role models understand and appreciate style of writing gets kids excited about reading helps them understand how a book is made and published better understand the art of writing broaden childrens knowledge understand writing and re-writing identify more with literature children really respond library circulation increases dramatically Connects kids to books in a way much more powerful than simply reading and sharing them can. Gives kids the opportunity to interact with people who have made writing and illustrating their careers, thereby modeling this possibility for the students gives kids an appreciation of the process that creates the books that they love. Significantly forwards LITERACY EFFORTS in the school. I hope this helps someone. It helped me a lot.
