And I’ll admit the number of wildly inappropriate unsolicited review copies has declined greatly in number over the years (nor have I ever received a book on geriatric cyberdating). But really, MY office looks more like the one on the right.<\/p>\n

Well, yesterday we featured a call to action for tornado-devastated Henryville’s school libraries<\/a>. And today, in honor of this year’s Share a Story – Shape a Future<\/a> tour (with fab logo at right designed by the lovely Elizabeth Dulemba), I’ve got a guest post over on Terry Doherty’s Family Bookshelf<\/a> telling the story behind the collaborative resource site Reach a Reader<\/a>, which I put together just about a year ago with the help of Terry and several other wonderful kidlitosphere friends. The inspiration for the project? You’ll have to read the post<\/a> to find out, but rest assured it definitely has something to do with cleaning out all those review copies! You’ll also find out how to locate places to donate YOUR out-of-control book piles, so that you, too, can share a story and shape a future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
