<P>Dear CSLP State Rep:</P>
<P> </P>
<P>Greetings from New Hampshire! This email contains information about a
resource that might interest librarians who are putting together material for
the 2010 summer reading theme, "Make a Splash--READ." </P>
<P> </P>
<P>Author/illustrator Marty Kelley (<EM>Fall is Not Easy</EM>) and award-winning
children's musician Steve Blunt have teamed up for the CD "LET'S HAVE A READING
PARTY!" It features the song "<STRONG>Make a Splash and
Read</STRONG>" created just for summer reading 2010...and includes 15
more songs & stories that make reading rock. Please consider
previewing it via the link below and letting other librarians in your state know
about this CD, which SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL (October, 2009) calls "...a
good album for enhancing storytimes." </P>
<P> </P>
