[AISLE-Share] Roland Smith visit-Champaign County

[Email list for the Association of Illinois School Library Educators]

Approximately 15 years ago, Roland visited our middle school.  He was awesome.  The kids loved hearing him.  At that time, Zach's Lie was on the Rebecca Caudill list and it won the all school and community read for us.  Such a wonderful experience for our kids.
