I agree. It's a wonderful book! So full of terrific, practical ideas. I
think it is particularly helpful for librarians serving multiple grades - I
plan for 8 - 10 different grade levels every week and need lots of great
ideas (I like to do something different for every grade). In fact- I'm
going to school today to do curriculum mapping and plan to use this book
for many of my ideas! I've been using her old books for the past year and
they are also full of great ideas!
