Raising Readers Books Ahead

Curious City was pleased to once again head up the book committee in their review of over 80 books for consideration in the Raising Reader 2009 (or beyond) collection. This incredible program has given over ONE MILLION picture books and board books to Maine children under five (thanks to the Libra Foundation). The swell staff at Raising Readers and I anxiously await the final scores from the committee and the day we get to select the 12-15 books that will be given out in 2009.
