Hello everyone, and welcome back to a brand new episode of Elevating Early Childhood.

Today's podcast is another one of my thrilling interviews, and I can't wait for you to meet this week's guest!

But before I introduce them, let me ask you a quick question: Do you use picture books in your preschool classroom?

Now, I already know your answer, "Well of course, Vanessa! Everyone uses picture books to teach young children!"

And you might be right, however, are you doing it the right way? Are you using children's picture books to meet educational standards?

Because if you aren't, then you 100% need to meet this week's guest, the brilliant Debbie Clement!

Debbie has more than 40 years of experience working with young children as both a teacher and an administrator. 

She is also a children's book writer and illustrator, and today, she's here to discuss how to use children's picture books to meet educational standards in fun and developmentally appropriate ways.
