Actors Support Literacy

Thanks to Readatouille for this great link to Screen Actor's Guild members reading picture books on-line. Storytime Online features name actors reading great books.

My favorite: Betty White reading Harry the Dirty Dog (one of our all-time favorite picture books)

They also have suggested activities to go with the story. While these books are not targeted to the advanced readers ages 8-12 that Ink Spells serves, they are a great start for little brothers and sisters and an example of how technology is changing the way we read.
