I love David Booth. I first listened to him at a Reading Recovery conference a few years ago, and loved his stories about teaching…including what was important to women teachers & men teachers (bulletin boards). I just saw him speak in Springfield, IL in a session with electronic child in the title. He communicates a lot in a short amount of time. Thank you for the interview! I will share this in the morning with colleagues, and point parents in my classroom to the website!
