A book can take you to the mountains, or the desert, or even under the sea. The amazing thing is that you can take a book anywhere too. You can read in your house on your favorite couch, or you can take a book with you in the car, to the beach, or to a campsite by the fire! Just imagine where you could take this book to read!

""Children will be excited by the idea that a book can go anywhere From fairgrounds to outer space, the possibilities are endless. Yet, sometimes the best place is the one that has always been there for you. So where will you take this book?"" - K. Lindeborg - Elementary Library Para. ""You can see inside the book in your mind. You go wherever the book takes you by using your imagination."" - Austin S., third grader. ""I read Where Will You Read This Book to my third grade class. It was fun to hear them laugh and predict the rhyme as I read aloud. This book is a perfect tie in to an activity I do at the beginning of the school year. To Promote reading, I ask students to send in a photo of them reading in their favorite summer reading spot. It is fund to see the kids get creative with their photos and reading spots. It makes a great beginning of the year bulletin board. Then, when the school year begins, I read Where Will You Read This Book. We draw parallel between their favorite spots and all the reading spots in the book. Then we do a visualization activity and discuss how a book can take you places. Such a great concept for a book and a wonderful springboard to teach students to visualize as they read."" - Noreen Elliott, Third Grade Teacher.

Author Information

Sheila Murphy Adams is an elementary school teacher and children's book author. She receives both inspiration and encouragement from her students. She actually published her first book because her students told her they loved it. She had written a picture book memoir as a lesson about the genre of memoir. Her students thought it was good enough to be published. And so began the adventure of writing children's books. Her latest inspiration comes from the birth of her first grandchild, Kian. Sheila lives in North Stonington, Connecticut with her husband, Mark. Michael Dillon was born and raised in Canton Ohio, and resides in Western Massachusetts. He has been drawing illustrations and portraits as long as memory serves. With a distinct style, using colored pencils, he designs his own Christmas cards based on a character known as ""Puna Plane"", created from his 46 years of experience in the commercial airline industry, along with his connection to rock and roll music that he shares with his wife. This is only Michael's third venture into children's book illustration, and he ""draws"" his inspiration from his wife and sons as well as his grandchildren that he loves beyond words.
