A literacy link

I thought I would put in this link to a fascinating video from literacy educator Nancie Atwell,  this was a response to a New York Times article on children and reading choices that sparked considerable debate.  From the perspective of the library this is a fascinating and relevant discussion: http://www.heinemann.com/shared/player.aspx?id=AtwellRebuttal&path=rtmp://heinpublishing.flashsvc.vitalstreamcdn.com/heinpublishing_vitalstream_com/_definst_/videos/atwell

To an extent this blog is my reading journal and an occasional place of work related jottings and that is what this link is.
Also I used a quote from Nancie Atwell on a reading promotion poster for school.
