A child's reading level doesn't catch up to his/her listening ability until 8th grade. Grown ups, keep reading to your children, they ❤️ it https://t.co/WSw19BlaGd

The @Lead_Mine birthday book room is boxed up (until the end of Aug - we hope) Today we gave away 10 boxes of gently used books to Ss to have in their hands to read over the summer. It's been an awesome year. Happy reading! #LMESReads @Aaronmarcin @Mrs_Hathaway1 @Lead_Mine_PTA

Fostering a child takes patience and resilience. We have created new resources to help children in crisis cope with separation from their birth parents, placement in foster care, and possible reunions. Explore the new topic here: https://t.co/PTnn8a6TYU #SesameCommunity

Judith Kerr was not as well known in the US. I loved her stories, courage and talent. A great role model. #LMESReads #kidlit #JudithKerr

[National Portrait Gallery @NPGLondon]

We’re saddened to learn of the death of children’s author and illustrator Judith Kerr. Over a 50-year career Kerr published more than 30 books, including the much-loved ‘Mog’ series, ‘The Tiger who came for Tea’, and ‘When Hitler Stole Pink Rabbit’.
