Yet another awesome book from D. G. Driver…

D.G. Driver

That truly was my first thought when I finished the final page of Whisper of the Woods and sat for a moment with my thoughts whirling. I connected with D.G. several years ago during the very first Multicultural Children’s Book Day. From the start, Cry of the Sea intrigued me and once I settled in to read it, it hook from from beginning to end.

Multicultural children's book giveaway

It’s time for the 2nd Annual Multicultural Children’s Book Giveaway and KidLit TV is teaming up with Pragmatic Mom, Jump into a Book, Franticmommy, The Educators Spin On It, What We Do All Day, Teach Mama, and Multicultural Children’s Book Day to give parents, teachers, and librarians in need, a chance to win a multicultural book bundle for their school library.

Libraries play an important role in everyone’s life. The library is a place where knowledge and the love of reading shine!  However, budgets for school programs are being cut, and school libraries have been heavily affected. Hours for library time have been shortened in some schools, and even non-existent in others.

Books are one of life’s greatest luxuries.  While some bemoan the reading requirement in school these days, it should be noted that reading was restricted to the very wealthy and privileged until fairly recently.  Since the invention of printing presses, but especially since the Industrial Revolution and mandate of elementary school education, literacy has increased dramatically.
