Book Talk with the First Lady

First Lady Laura Bush has a new title: author. She cowrote the picture book Read All About It! with her daughter Jenna Bush. It arrived in stores on April 22.

The former teachers drew on their experiences in the classroom to write the book. In the story, a class clown named Tyrone prefers things that are real, like playing tag, to reading. But one day, books come alive for him really!

The two authors want young readers to see that books are more than just words on a page. "With a little bit of imagination, characters in books really can come alive," Mrs. Bush told TFK Kid Reporter Yunhee Hyun last week. Read the Q&A with Mrs. Bush at timeforkids.com/bush.
