The librarian at one of my schools this year is published illustrator, Diane Greenseid, who has a great web site herself. She also recommended the following sites that were new to me:
Just One More Book
Audio interviews with authors and illustrators compiled. You’ll find almost any author on this site.
Guys Read, a site created by Stinky Cheese Man author, Jon Scieszka.
Trying to motivate boys to read, this site makes suggestions for books that appeal to boys and even adult males.
Planet Esme, from author Esmé Codell
Engaging format to expose you to Esmé’s books
Mrs. P, in a hilarious format, Mrs. P. shares stories with you
thanks to Angele Maiers for the link
For additional storytelling resources see:
Jon Sciezka has a great new book out called Knuckleheads — it’s an autobio of his childhood and answers the question he gets from kids: where the heck did you get your idea for your books?
