Read
to Me is based on a poem I wrote in 1997 for Pima County
Public Library's Project
L.I.F.T (Literacy Involves Families Together).
The simple yet powerful words in the poem encourage families to read, sing, and tell stories to one another. Kyra Teis created the illustrations that include babies, children, and adults of different ethnicities and generations sharing literacy moments together. Listen an introduction to the book on TeachingBooks.net. The top and bottom photographs at the left were taken in November 2007 at a Project L.I.F.T. class at Marana High School, Marana, Arizona. The middle photo was taken in April 2008 at a Project L.I.F.T. event in Tucson. The book is available in different language editions: bilingual Spanish/English, English, Spanish, and Vietnamese. The publisher, Star Bright Books, offers Read to Me and Vamos a leer posters to help organizations spread the word about the importance of nurturing young children through literacy.
