Shari McCormick, Community Bookseller
My name is Shari, I have been a teacher for over 20 years. During my teaching experiences, I always noticed the importance of language and literature. The children never failed in their requests for story reading and desire to read independently. Language immersion is a central part of the preschool classroom environment. As a Barefoot Books Ambassador, I am very excited for the opportunity to partner with Barefoot Books, a children’s book publisher that focuses on the importance of diverse, inclusive and inspiring books for children. From infancy to adulthood, reading is important. They will grow to love books and reading…they will choose their interests and topics but the love for words and the journey to becoming great readers will be within them. We are responsible for the literacy development of young children and molding the skills of growing children.
