Wouldn't you love to see what is on the nightstand of your literacy gurus right now? We would love to peek into the homes of Richard Allington, Lucy Calkins, Regie Routman, Ralph Fletcher, Mary Howard, and Katie Wood Ray (among others) to see what they are engrossed in professionally or curled up with for enjoyment. We can't tell you what has captured the attention of our mentors this spring, but we'll gladly let you take a peek into our reading lives. Here are our current page-turners.
