New digital and Web 2.0 tools are making it easier for teachers and parents to connect and share advice and stories about the books that are inspiring their kids.

In just a few weeks, thousands have joined a Facebook group called I <3 Scholastic Book Clubs where they’re posting their memories of books they read when they were kids, and messages about what their children and students are excited about today.

It’s fitting that they would connect around Scholastic Book Clubs – an institution that was a part of the school and learning experience of today’s parents, and continues to help kids develop a love of books and reading today.

“I loved Scholastic as a child and as a mom,” one teacher wrote. “Now I love Scholastic as a teacher. The books are awesome!”
