Sites of the Week:
Animals Should Definitely NOT Borrow Library Books

Here’s a takeoff on Ron and Judi Barrett’s Animals Should Definitely NOT Wear Clothing (Atheneum, 1970). Created by Georgia media specialist Shelley Paul, the site shows elementary school students how to take proper care of their library books. If animals checked out library books, says Paul, then a squid might get ink on the pages, or a goat might gobble them up. Paul recommends taking the images, which she created using KidPix software, and mounting them on PowerPoint slides.
