| contents | An Author in Your E-Mail: There's an Easy, Inexpensive Way to Connect Kids with Their Favorite Authors Golant, Galina Childrens Literature Computer Mediated Communication Authors Reading Motivation Motivation Techniques Student Motivation Program Development Librarians and teachers know that helping kids develop a life-long love of reading is one of the most important things they can do. But let's face it, it's tough to come up with creative ways to get kids excited about books. One of the easiest ways to transform apathetic students into enthusiastic readers is to invite a children's book creator to your school or library, however that can be very expensive. The author of this article recommends a simple, cheap alternative, creating an online author program. Online communication between kids and authors is extremely rewarding for everyone. It brings books and authors closer to children, and encourages them to read--and even perhaps inspires them to one day become writers or illustrators. This article describes how to create one of these programs. |
