In honor of Catholic Schools Week, the annual celebration of Catholic education throughout the United States, first, second and third grade students will meet Linsey Davis, ABC News Correspondent and author, who will read her new book The Smallest Spot of a Dot: The Little Ways We’re Different, the Big Ways We’re the Same on Thursday, February 2nd from 1:00 p.m. – 1:45 p.m at Our Lady of Lourdes School, 468 West 143rd Street and Amsterdam Avenue in Manhattan.

Linsey Davis is an Emmy Award winning ABC News Correspondent, filing reports for World News, Good Morning America, 20/20 and Nightline. She has covered major news stories around the globe, and is excited to share her story, The Smallest Spot of a Dot: The Little Ways We’re Different, the Big Ways We’re the Same, a playful and poignant picture book that celebrates how we are all part of the human race. Students will receive a copy of the book.

Davis’ visit is presented by Page Turners, a program of Champions for Quality Education, which promotes the literary arts by bringing celebrated authors into inner-city schools. Novelists, poets, non-fiction writers, advertising executives, illustrators and technical writers leave students with a tool chest to start their own creative community at school. Since its inception, Page Turners has coordinated dozens of authors with inner-city Catholic schools in the Archdiocese of New York and donated over 1,000 books to students.
