Author Names

TeachingBooks.net has one of the handiest guides for us children's lit types.  Especially if you ever have to talk to people aloud about authors!  It is the Author Name Pronunciation Guide which has the authors saying their own names aloud. 

Here's the one I went to immediately:  Jon Scieszka.  Rhymes with Fresca!

Thank you, Tasha, for this wonderful resource! What a fantastic idea. I didn't even know it was out there. So many of my favorite authors are listed here, many of them whose names I didn't know how to pronounce. I'm glad to know of it.
