Touched by Picture Books
Thanks to Tasha Saecker WLA member and author of the Waking Brain Cells blog for tweeting and alerting folks about an incredible post by author Laurel Snyder: A Meditation on My Fierce Love of Picture Books.
It really speaks not only to the rare beauty of the words in picture books but to the importance of children immersing themselves in them rather than being rushed into chapter books too early. A lovely read.
