One of the most recognized television and film actors of all time, Henry Winkler captured America’s heart and tickled its funny bone as Arthur Fonzarelli on the 1970s hit show Happy Days. Today, Henry is bringing happy days to young readers with his Hank Zipzer book series, which follows a young student who faces learning challenges. The stories in the series are largely based on Henry’s own real-life experiences in the classroom and his struggles with dyslexia.

Sonia Manzano brought decades of sunny days to Sesame Street and to millions of children watching the iconic television show. When Manzano auditioned for the fledgling show in 1971, she couldn’t have foreseen its immense popularity and never imagined she’d be spending the next 44 years teaching children how to count to 10 in Spanish, tooling around in the Fix-It Shop, and hanging out with the likes of Oscar the Grouch...

While a second career as a children’s author might seem an unlikely choice for this basketball giant, Shaquille O’Neal tells us that he turnedto writing books for children in his retirement as a way to continue to champion two of his favorite topics: reading and basketball. That’s a slam dunk in our playbook. For iPhone users who need immediate answers to their questions, information is only a button-push away. For years, Apple devotees wondered if the voice inside their phones was computer-generated. To some extent it is. However, there is a real woman behind that sound. Meet Susan Bennett, the voice of Siri! Also in this issue, we meet 12-year-old Author Hannah Hoffman, who tells us that having her debut book published has been a dream come true ... literally. Kathryn Starke tells us if she learned one thing in the 10 years she spent teaching in inner-city public schools, it’s that many students need extra help to learn basic literacy skills. So she combined her expertise as a literacy specialist with the thrill of the NFL to create Tackle Reading, which features thoughts on reading from over 45 contributors in the fields of education, entertainment, and professional sports. Julie Sternberg and Marcie colleen have created Play Memory, a brilliant resource for parents, teachers, and librarians to help young people cope with the challenges they are facing every day. And our special contributor this month is Noelle Sterne, Ph.D., who gives us some tips on giving a great children’s presentation.
