You can read her inspiring story and submit questions to her through Nov.22. As an adult learner herself, she has done a lot to call attention to problems of literacy in the U.S.and try to affect policy. At age 47, Toni Cordell-Seiple roller skated from California to Florida to focus media attention on literacy problems. Once a non-reader herself,she felt compelled to do for others what had been done for her. In 1990 she started a tour "Rollin' for Readin." She skated across country, making public speaking engagements at service organization meetings, libraries, schools and Chambers of Commerce. I invite you and your learners to read her story and send her questions.Visit the LiteracyLink homepage at http://www.pbs.org/literacy and click on Toni's name to get to her site.
