John Schu

He was a Teacher Librarian outside Illinois for nine years. He is the Ambassador of School Libraries for Scholastic.

He is obsessed with Kate DiCamillo.

The first thing he does is smell the books. 

Finding Winnie has a beautiful cover. This is the 2016 Caldecott award winner.

Third grade is when he introduces Amulet. There are six Amulet books. 

Louisiana El Fontaine in Raymie Ñightingale is probably the character closest to Kate Di Camillo

Little Elliot's Big City

The goal of  libraries is not to get the books back, but to get back readers.

Favorite Books

Beekle

Raymie Nightingale by Kate DiCamillo He carries it with him wherever he goes.

Kate DiCamillo didn't read Charlottes Web until she was 30 because she was afraid of what was going to happen to the pig.

It comes out April 12.

Pax by Sarah Pennypacker. This is his second favorite book. It alternates in perspective from Pax the fox and then Peter. It is a three hankie book.

Booked by Kwamie Alexander. It's more about books than soccer. It is dedicated to John Schu.
