This document was created as part of a project for my Reading Initiative class through Montgomery County Public Schools.Web sites are separated by grade level, kindergarten through 2nd grade, and based on the most recent Author Studies document from the

county.Also contained in this document are other sites of interest when conducting author studies or for searching information about other

authors/illustrators. Other author sites are listed at the end, and grade level is noted, if it is a county author study. Compiled by Stacey Ochs, MCPS, 5/02
