Focusing on training the caregiver, this handbook Explains how to help day-care providers, homeschoolers, and others who care for young children foster school-readiness skills among their charges Arms librarians with a step-by-step workshop model, with tips on implementing and evaluating the program Provides guidance for coordinating workshops with other library early literacy initiatives Includes resources and activities to share with participants Presenting models which can be easily adapted to state-mandated school-readiness requirements, Every Child Ready for School helps libraries fashion their own innovative community early literacy outreach programs.

About the Author :
Dorothy Stoltz coordinates outreach services and programming at Carroll County (Maryland) Public Library. She spearheaded a successful early literacy training research study, which showed statistically significant increases in early literacy skills of children. With more than twenty-five years of experience in public libraries, she oversees early literacy training, peer coaching, programming, mobile services, community outreach, and grant projects, including "Parents as Teachers," at her library. She is the author of several articles in professional journals. In 2011 she became a member of the ALSC/PLA Every Child Ready to Read Oversight Committee. She earned her MLS at Clarion University of Pennsylvania.

Review :
The authors--a reading specialist, an outreach librarian, and an early-literacy trainer--offer a wealth of practical and easy-to-implement suggestions on how to create a training package for adults to encourage school readiness in young children. This book provides relevant and thoughtful hands-on tips and ideas for every step in the process, from why it is important to offer training opportunities about early learning for parents and guardians to ways staff can support those adults. Questions meant to encourage reflection ("Points to Ponder") are included at the close of each chapter, along with a section of notes listing any works cited. Appendixes offer samples of a training agenda, newsletter, blog entry, and more. The work concludes with a comprehensive resource section and an index. Web extras, including downloadable versions of materials listed in the book, are available online. This text would be a valuable tool for anyone responsible for creating or presenting early-learning training for adults.
