		Children's Book Week Celebration

Children's Book Week is scheduled for November 15 - 21, 2004. Sponsored by
the Children's Book Council (http://www.cbcbooks.org/cbw/)
<http://www.cbcbooks.org/cbw/)> , this is the 85th Annual celebration. 

This year's theme is:

"Let's Book, Let's Rock, Let's Roll, Let's Move, Let's Go, 
Let's Discover, Let's Fly, 
Let's Do It All...
With Children's Books!"
Children's Book Week is a wonderful opportunity for Ohio's schools and
libraries to partner to support reading and families. 

Governor Bob Taft has signed an official resolution to announce 
Children's Book Week here in Ohio! To download this resolution go to:
