<p class="MsoNormal">Hello, library partners! Here’s a quick question from Secretary of State Ruth Johnson. She asked me to reach out to all of you for some book suggestions that she can use during
<b><span style="color:#4F81BD">March is Reading Month</span></b>. Many schools across the state invite her to read to some of their classrooms during the month. This is her fourth year doing it and she’s hoping to get some fresh suggestions for books. BTW,
she prefers books about Michigan. <span style="font-family:Wingdings">J</span> <o:p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Any suggestions?? I really appreciate your help!<o:p></o:p></p>
