The Read-Aloud Handbook by Jim Trelease
Another book about reading aloud to your children. This one has great advice, and provides lists of books that would work well for read-alouds.
Hey Jessica! You should check out the book Teach Twice just released! It's a story both written and illustrated in Uganda called My Precious Name. It provides a rich cultural experience for children and the profits go to fund the building of a high school in Nakikungube, Uganda! You can pre-order the book and get a preview here: http://teachtwice.org/?wpsc-product=my-precious-name
