Mari, One of t...Thanks Carolyn for having me today.<br />Mari, One of the reasons I wrote the books is I saw how teachers and parents expect children to remain still for stories. Not all children can stay still for long periods of time. So, I wrote books where movement is encouraged. Funny, how instead of being "out of control" (like most teachers fear) the students are more focused during and after the story time.Marthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07512966254621483091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3574283050305486107.post-435636506906541522011-04-07T03:57:33.308-07:002011-04-07T03:57:33.308-07:00I think the idea of your books is great.
