Read Aloud Children’s Picture Book: It Could Have Been Worse

#mybookshelfisopen Over the last several weeks I, like many other Americans, have been pondering ideas of how to help with the current COVID-19 situation.  I’ve brainstormed what I might have to offer while still doing my part to flatten the curve while practicing social distancing.  I asked myself, “What do I have?” and “What do I know?”.  It became clear last weekend how I might help.  I taught elementary school in Maryland for about 6 years before “retiring” to become a stay at home Mom.  My grandmother (Mimi) was an English teacher, and my Mom a Home Economics teacher, so teaching is in my blood.  I have always loved children’s books and, over the years, have accumulated quite a collection.  So, to answer my own question, “What do I have?”, well, I have books, lots of books.  And “What do I know?”, well, I know how to read them! Schools are closed; libraries are closed, but #mybookshelfisopen!! Plain and simple, my goal is to create an online library of read aloud books for children
