About the Presenter:
Judy Freeman (www.JudyReadsBooks.com) is a well-known consultant, writer, and speaker on children's literature, storytelling, and all aspects of librarianship. She is a visiting lecturer at the School of Information, and Library Science at Pratt Institute in New York City, where she teaches courses on children's literature and storytelling. A former school librarian, she gives conferences, workshops, speeches, and performances throught the U.S and the world for teachers, librarians, parents, and children, and is a national seminar presenter for ER (Bureau of Education and Research). Judy served as a member of the 2000 Newbery Committee and the 2008 Siebert Committee.

Judy's book, Once Upon a Time: Using Storytelling, Creative Drama, and Readers' Theater with Children in Grades PreK-6 (Libraries Unlimited, 2007), won the 2009 Anne Izard Storyteller's Choice Award. Her mega-books, Books Kids Will Sit Still For 3 (2006) and its popular companions Books Kids Will Sit Still For: The Complete Read-Aloud Guide (1990), and More Books Kids Will Sit Still For (1995), are indispensable resources for literature-based classrooms and libraries. Judy also writes the yearly The Winners Handbook, based on her Winners Workshops, reviewing her top 100 children's books of the past year. Judy writes several online book review columns, including "Desperate Librarians" for the online database NoveList, and "What's New" for School Library Journal's Curriculum Connections. Her latest and most exciting project is writing the children's book reviews and other content for author James Patterson's spectacular website for parents, teachers, librarians, and kids: www.ReadKiddoRead.com, which was named one of ALA's Great Web Sites for Kids for 2009, and won the first annual Innovations in Reading Prize from the National Book Foundtation in 2009.
