Night Light Stories feature Book Builder
Night Light Stories is a podcast featuring original children's stories. These stories were all originally told by the friendly glow of a child's night light. We invite you now to share these stories with your own children, at night, in the morning, or anytime…anywhere. You can download and listen to the stories from the links on the blog or download it free at iTunes!

I learn, You Learn, We Learn Blog
UDL Book Builder deserves a few shout outs for being a free online tool to create books and stories. Along with the tool itself, there are tips for authors, model books to explore and resources galore for creating the online books. I think I’ll have my 7th grade students create children’s books using this site as part of my Child Development unit.
