Jumpstart Reading October 2, 2008
Corduroy by Don Freeman is the picture book for the read for the record Jumpstart. The website has resources, event listings and methods to participate.
Across the nation people will read and celebrate the book Corduroy. It has been a favorite of mine because of the teddy bear with the missing button and the girl who loves him.
