As part of her role as Honorary Chair of National Library Week, Caroline Kennedy visited the Sanislo Elementary School library in Seattle on April 8, 2013 to help promote School Library Month. Kennedy met with first through third grade students in Sanislo’s poetry club and shared from her recent book, "Poems to Learn by Heart.” More great photos of her visit with students are available on the @ your library Facebook page.
Also, just in time for National Poetry Month and National Library Week, be sure to check out Poetry Beats Studio, an interactive studio designed for students, educators and poetry lovers, where they can explore the rhythm and sound of spoken word. Poetry Beats Studio is in support of Caroline Kennedy's new book, "Poems to Learn by Heart."
