should try to justify my love when
telling all of you about the new science
on reading fiction but only seven
minutes apparently functional MRIs of
the wave show high connectivity in the
left temporal cortex theory of language
comprehension which doesn’t occur with
screen time we were better able to put
differences and put ourselves in someone
else’s shoes none of this may be true
well because I started to care about
sharing books especially picture books
with young children everywhere this
story is a variation on that theme like
that father was born in a tiny village
of stuff in here and came to America in
the early sixties his village is a drag
faced with little employment besides
agriculture a few peanut farms and mango
orchards over the years almost all of my
extended family migrated away to big
cities about 10 years ago some family
members including a music teacher and a
lawyer wanted to go to school in this
place because the existing schools are
limited and a trouble maintaining
teacher because the existence will be
limited and in trouble maintaining
teachers meanwhile i’ve been missing
bangalore periodically came of the
school I wanted to see it and made it
three hour drive over rural votes to get
her first sight a concrete building
essential dirt bombs would play children
sitting on the floor working on stage
with chalk Le’Veon is there was no
library and so he returned the next year
carrying a few suitcases work of old
books it wasn’t get a library back at
home the gilroy public library how they
failed describes in the nation once a
month I would frequently to cleanse
books and help the volunteer you set up
the main issue was what to choose from
place that is halfway across the world
with a very different context how is it
I suicide
appropriate what if upon snowflakes
broaden the imagination and go to movies
with warner or what if he’s such an
alien concept probably was going to
relate to it I’m still trying to answer
these questions to take what is most
interesting and helpful but anyway sure
I don’t need too many books on the
history of extreme child leaning on the
next trip I realized it simply
collecting and transporting books so far
about what was needed was an organized
library with an inventory lending system
in a way to evaluate its use in future
needs a research from selected is simple
cataloging method with the eastman
numeral from zero tonight through
subject area and color coding for
categories the key to this
organizational system was a hands-on
poster in English and Bella loop the
local language the books were kept in
glass cases so they won’t be destroyed
by critters are dust termites silverfish
and mold or big problem in these parts
you can quickly destroy papers that year
my brother cousins and aunts came
together and help with the big task of
cleaning sorting and labeling over the
course of week we organized and
displayed all the materials cataloging
opening nine hundred books and all I
talked to students from every day and
some teachers soup the understand what
types of books with being enjoyed and
looked at the most many students look
for sports figures such as cricket
players with a woman tennis star sania
mirza whose destiny olympics even older
students seem to benefit from sports or
picture books and now victory direction
would be here to come some insights with
a game what books are considered to
value his passions in the year I was
gone the library was being used
primarily on site prepare their students
and even teachers might lose
destroy the books I felt the
communicating use was far more important
than maintaining the books by damage
this is somewhat of a new concept my
father my calls is schools in India keep
them books in glass cases and not
releasing them into his longing hands I
promised the teachers but I expected
some books to disappear I would gladly
replace from each year I was delighted
to see that on my return they’re being
taken into the classroom and after
several any portion they’re even being
checked out to take home well its
students in the village and all across
India grew up being taught to the
deepest set for books and feeding in
general it’s still rather watch TV even
me some coins in the village on a
television set and often other villagers
will come into those few heads mates to
watch now the power is on if they’re in
LA to school it kids will be working in
the fields with their parents are
playing the dirty just like all of us
they have endless distractions so here’s
the main challenge what can I do to
attract the students of the school
library they have minimal exposure to
print media outside the school textbooks
so this library is their only source of
outside behave like young people
everywhere they’re drawn to a beautiful
colorful easily accessible books and
magazines knowing that a single picture
i can bring me back to a place of wonder
i believe that the artwork alone can
view revelation our books will be useful
to anyone I try to look for evidence and
it really have been any studies in this
do i hear me honk beauty because if you
would enjoy meeting Babar or Curious
George
we know then if we try out the deserves
a picture book and this is where i can
continue to make a contribution the
teachers with family supporting the
school have so many pressing issues to
manage from providing nutritious meals
drinking water and health care to settle
of school in with you Lisa standardized
statewide testing the families by
putting the school without my family
my music my music teacher aunt brings
monster I teaching techniques to the
preschool and kindergarten my lawyer
grandma my Mary tired professor of God
mother teaches the botany class my
lawyer wat supports the teachers day me
from the city by text and phone and from
here my mother Serge’s whip up some
fellow goon although they’re hard to
come by teacher started a science fair
its founding schools attend our class
advice is largely clay sculpture top our
wonderfully creative instructor through
traditional Potter family so I get to
talk much about how I started by reading
aloud two kids my doctor’s way to do in
Salinas or how accepted books to take
the local day care because I went global
unexpensive I hope we keep working with
the local and global with kids
everywhere and get better at creating a moment of fun for any child of the world
