http://www.lauracandler.com/ Laura Candler has a number of free resources and has writted an ebook called Empowering Readers, which is a step-by-step guide for implementing Reader's Workshop. It's fabulous, downloadable, and not too expensive. I used this resource when I started RW and it was so helpful! For a little extra you can join her user's groups and collaborate with teachers from all over the country who are trying Reader's Workshop. http://hill.troy.k12.mi.us/staff/bnewingham/myweb3/ This is a 3rd grade teacher's site. She has been a featured teacher on scholastic.com. She has some great Reader's Workshop information and resources. Her whole site is full of helpful information. By the way, I believe strongly in RW. I found that all of my students responded to it and improved their reading skills. Most importantly, they all became passionate readers. Good luck to you!

Your local library should be able to get you whatever book you want for a pretty extended checkout time. Next, Stenhouse and maybe other publishers allow you to read several of their books online. I'd also recommend visiting amazon.com and reading about Linda Dorn and Carla Soffos' books and see which of them would be the best fit for you. Those books are very reasonably priced.
