how well do you know me?
Esme Raji Codell has a blog post about an issue on which I am perpetually undecided: whether it's okay for Pura Belpre awards to be won only by Latino/Latina authors, and Coretta Scott King awards by African-Americans. Read if it you like, and let me know what you think.
But that's not what compelled me to blog. I'd never been to her website before, so I was struck by the heading at the top. It includes this: "I hope this book-a-day plan will be a boon to anyone who would like to play a supporting character in a child's reading life story." I am certain that people who know me in real life will be able to imagine my strong reaction to these words!
