I’ve enjoyed reading and viewing all of this year’s Caldecott winners, particularly Extra Yarn by Mac Barnett since I’m a knitter and lover of all things yarn! I used Bookr, a fun FlickrToy, to create a short photobook that could be used to introduce Extra Yarn to students. Everyone is welcome to use it with their classes. http://www.web2teachingtools.com/bookr.html
