I got an email about this last month...and foolishly ignored it. :(
But a reminder about Blogust in my inmail today sent me here...and I'm so glad!  I will definitely try to visit each contributor this month...what a wonderful way to raise awareness of world needs...and connect those who want to help.
My main mission is to help every young child become a reader and lover of books...my parenting blog reviews picture books and encourages parents to read with their kids on a daily basis...as does my award-winning book for parents and teachers, Show Me How! Build Your Child's Self-Esteem Through Reading, Crafting and Cooking.  In May, I donated 20 copies of this great resource to libraries across the country...this month, I've opened nominations to donate a dozen copies to schools. I also volunteer twice a month at local kindergartens and Pre-K's, reading and crafting and storytelling.  My workshops for parents and teachers offer a fresh perspective on building self-esteem and literacy using the messages in classic picture books. 
Congratulations on taking part in a worthy effort!
