• Michigan Reads! title announced The 2013 Michigan Reads! One State, One Children's Book program title has been selected! We are proud to announce that the 2013 Michigan Reads! book will be Woolbur, written by Leslie Helakoski and illustrated Lee Harper. When Woolbur, a creative, young sheep, is asked to do things, he finds original ways to accomplish everyday tasks and shares his ideas with others. The publisher is HarperCollins, and we are pleased to have them partnering with us on the graphics for the kit materials. As in previous years, we will be sending a programming guide and kit to all public library locations, K-2 school buildings, Great Start Readiness and Head Start classrooms in mid-August. Our official launch day will be September 9th, in honor of International Literacy Day. Right now, we are looking for libraries who would like to have Leslie visit in September or October. Please find the link to the author tour survey below.

In the next month, look for a completely revamped Michigan Reads! site and the programming guide at www.michigan.gov/michiganreads. For now, you can also find the survey link at the site. Please let us hear back from you by May 27th so we can plan the program for the fall.
