Release Date: 2022-04-01
Learn how to use children's books during storytime to approach sensitive topics and increase children's social-emotional wellness-and how to create storytimes that are engaging, participative, and FUN! The emotional challenges many children experience consume the time of teachers, exhaust parents, and sometimes lead children toward behaviors that prohibit social and academic success. Storytime to the rescue! Library storytimes prepare children for kindergarten; storytimes at home and in preschools allow teachers, parents, and children to think and talk about empathy and the importance of honoring your own and others' feelings. In Bringing Heart and Mind into Storytime, Heather McNeil teaches librarians and teachers how to use books to open conversations with children to teach such concepts as patience, tenacity, kindness, and teamwork. McNeil shares research on brain development, social-emotional learning, and the importance of play, but she also emphasizes maintaining the fun of storytime. She recommends songs, action rhymes, games, and crafts that contribute to fun and healthy storytimes. Extensive lists of recommended books will help readers find the right ones for their audience.

Sometimes the grass isn’t always greener… I found the perfect guy. His name is Brett. He’s smart, funny, charming, very good looking, and a great kisser. He gets me. And I get him. Oh, did I mention that he’s my ex? And did I mention that I just dumped him for a total dud? Yeah, not what I expected…at all. However, I’m fully prepared to eat crow if it means getting Brett back. But there’s one problem…Brett recently got hired at my workplace, and my boss has a strict policy against inter-office dating. So, getting back together? Not happening. I worked hard for my job and I’m not about to lose it—not even for love. I can totally work alongside Brett and ignore my feelings. No problem. But when we’re asked to narrate a steamy romance novel together in a tight, cramped audio booth, I can’t take it any longer. I have to have him back. With everything I’ve worked for on the line, I’m forced to ask myself—is love worth the risk?
