	Description:		Utah's First Lady, Abby Cox, is joined by Marianna “Marnie” Allred (Media Specialist for Robert Frost Elementary) to talk about Marnie's passion for reading while living on a 50-acre farm, some of Marnie's favorite childhood books and authors growing up that helped her imagination flourish, and some of the trends that Marnie is seeing when it comes to children adapting to an ever-evolving way to consume literature. We also dive into the support staff shortage that many schools are currently experiencing throughout the state, the influence that a library can have on a student, and the incredibly difficult challenges that teachers are currently facing. Marnie also explains the impact that having a parent being a teacher for a day could have on the parent-teacher relationship and why teachers need more commitment from parents to provide a better learning experience for the student.

Higgins) I Can Only Draw Worms (Will Mabbit) The Ruth Galloway Novels (Elly Griffiths) She's Up to No Good (Sara Goodman Confino) See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
