= Fun Resources  =

In my research for this assignment, I came across so many fun and interesting sites for teachers (and students). I thought it would be helpful to create a resource page for educators interested in pursuing the works of Lane Smith in their classrooms. Enjoy! ** Websites of interviews/podcasts with Lane Smith: ** [|A Google video]where Lane talks about working with Jon Scieszka, writing his own books and illustrating for //Hooray for Diffendoofer Day!// This is a [|podcast of Lane Smith] discussing how he gets his ideas and his illustrative process.
