Story of Interest


I know that this story is not dealing directly with English Language Learners; however, the story is about an African American man being inspired to read by a Librarian in a rather unusual way. This story shows how important positive role models are for developing a sense of self and a knowledge that you can achieve. It also reinforces the idea that teachers need to know their students.

Read and listen to the story.

It is very inspiring.
