Reviews

Miller's relevant and practical ideas give how-to steps for integrating drama, music, and movement into the school library curriculum. The author discusses methods for cooperating and collaborative planning between media specialists and elementary teachers. The chapter on pairing nonfiction and fiction is a hot topic for thematic units like the Westward Expansion. The book includes reproducible masters for activities, with the necessary patterns. The last chapter gives suggestions for improving boys' literacy habits. A useful resource for busy educators who want to create an interest in collaboration between media specialists and classroom teachers.—Kathleen Pavin, Purdy Elementary School Library, Fort Atkinson, WI
