Esme Raji Codell, professional "readiologist" has a new blog coming soon: Hit the Ground Running! The Educating Esme Teacher Blog for "new and high-spirited" K-5 teachers. You should listen to her because she knows what she's talking about:
"Anyone who says they care about kids and schools and doesn't read aloud is lying, or about to make the discovery of a lifetime. I'm a woman on a mission. Let me rock your pedagogical world."
