Thank you to everyone who participated in the February discussions on multicultural literature, which were just one dimension of important conversations that have been taking place in many contexts across many years.
Please feel free to use the next few days to share your children's and young adult literature-related announcements. Early next week, we'll launch into the first of our two discussions for March:
*First Half of Month:* *Building on Books. * As librarians continue providing resources and programming that supports early literacy, they are not only developing new ideas but also thinking about old topics in new ways, so a story time that was once simply about "counting" or "nature" or "building" is now part of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) education in early childhood. During the first half of March, we invite you to share your favorite books for babies, toddlers and early-elementary age that connect to science, technology, engineering and math---and share any book-related programming ideas, too!
*Second Half of Month: Literary Science. *To anyone who knows children's and young adult literature, it's no secret that there are great non-fiction and fiction titles that can be used across the curriculum, modeling outstanding writing and research while offering an engaging, often in-depth exploration of a subject. We'll continue our focus on science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) education the second half of March by inviting you to share book ideas for older children and teens.
