Tomorrow my students and I will celebrate El día de los niños/El día de los libros (Children's Day/Book Day). It is a yearly celebration that "emphasizes the importance of advocating literacy for children of all linguistic and cultural backgrounds."
ALSC launched a new website that contains resources to help you plan your own Día celebration. Watch Pat Mora's introduction to the new site.

Last year Shannon Miller, Alyson Beecher, and I celebrated Día together. Our students took turns reading the Spanish and English parts of Pat Mora's Book Fiesta!
Borrow Book Fiesta! from your school or public library. Whenever possible, please support independent bookshops.
