I’m kind of pleased about this. Anyone who has been keeping up with this blog for any time knows I was involved with an organization called The Missouri Center for the Book. To recap for the benefit of those who are just joining us, the MCB is the state affiliate of the Library of Congress Center for the Book, which is an organization that promotes and advocates for what we call The Community of the Book. That includes authors, sure, but also bookstores, libraries, publishers, bookbinders, even illustrators.
The Center for the Book is not a remedial reading program.
There are plenty others that do that. …
