| Abstract: | The purpose of this investigation was to explore how teachers' knowledge of read alouds might be shaped by opportunities to explore the crafting of picturebooks and the nature of collaborative meaning-making. Participants were enrolled in a graduate children's literature course across one academic semester. Data included pre and post interviews as well as a reflective essay and a mini-research project. The authors found that although nearly all participants gained new knowledge about the crafting of picturebooks, only those with opportunities to apply what they were learning with children in classroom settings experienced a change in their thinking about the purpose and procedures for engaging students in read alouds.
