[ Back to In the Press ]Animal Fact Guide Recognized by the American Library Association
The American Library Association has selected Animal Fact Guide, an educational website created by two New London residents, to be included in their Internet guide of Great Web Sites for Kids.
Websites selected for the honor must meet several standards put forth by a committee of children's librarians. They must show commendable quality and encourage young people's interests. According to Karen Lemmons, co-chair of the Great Web Sites for Kids committee, "Great Web Sites for Kids are those considered the best web sites for ages birth to 14, outstanding in both content and conception."
Animal Fact Guide was created by P.A. Smith and Abi Cushman of Brown Bear Creative in August of this year. The site features articles about interesting and endangered animals from around the world and offers fun downloads like kids' coloring pages, word searches, and desktop wallpapers.
Animal Fact Guide will be posted to the ALA's Great Web Sites for Kids site in December or January.
