Farewell From The Classroom Bookshelf

April 30, 2022 by Erika Thulin Dawes   Leave a Comment

Dear Classroom Bookshelf Readers, 

We would like to extend our sincere gratitude for your readership over the years. Going forward, you will be able to access our blog entries at https://classroombookshelf.wordpress.com/ . Our full twelve years of entries will soon be there and we hope that you and your students will continue to use our teaching invitations to explore the wonderful books we have featured. 

We’re thrilled to share that we’re busy at work on a new book, in which we share a new framework for using children’s, middle grade, and young adult literature in the K-8 classroom.  The framework is the result of our collective years of teaching young people and their teachers,  and writing blog entries. Look for the new book in late 2023.

Fondly,

The Classroom Bookshelf Team
