I have a lousy memory when it comes to remembering titles of books, music and movies, but I love to read and can usually remember the story. 
This is a picture I took of Bryce Canyon and it is posted on my flickr page.
Librarything is the answer to my memory problem. I tried the stretch activity and put as many favorite books as I could remember on my list. I’m still working on it. The 50 book challenge would make a great New Year’s resolution. You can start at any point, but there is something in my mind that says I would enjoy starting this at the beginning of the calendar year. Personally I can see myself using this. Professionally I can also see myself keeping track of books and looking into groups for more ideas. For my elementary music classroom, I’m not so sure this is really the best tool to use with my limited time. There have been many other tools that will be of more use. I can see classroom teachers using this!

I loved this, too! I have wondered about using this in my elementary music classroom. The only thing I could come up with was to make a list of books about music instruments or composers that my students might enjoy reading. I haven’t searched yet, but when I have time I will.
