He really wants the shoes that “everyone” has at school. The book is about a young boy named Jeremy who has a problem. Those ShoesĪfter much research, Lauren decided on the book Those Shoes by Maribeth Boelts. To make this effort successful, she knew she needed to provide teachers with all of the resources they would need, and so she ordered enough paperback copies of the book to go to every classroom teacher. She decided to pursue the idea of creating a school-wide read-aloud event using a single book for grades kindergarten through fifth grade.
She wanted to use literature to explore the idea of the concepts of wants and needs, sharing and friendship.

Lauren Lynn has been the librarian at Huntingtown Elementary School in Huntingtown, Maryland, for 5 years. It involves a school librarian who is committed to celebrating the diversity in all of us, who has a passion for showing every child that they are special, and who has a special gift for bringing literature to life. In this blog post, I wanted to share one such example. Making connections between the AASL Standards and literature is something that school librarians do very well. We celebrate the work of other librarians and find joy in being part of an effective, innovative profession.
