I have had so much fun turning a great picture book into a readers theater script but I am always worried I might be infringing on copyright. So I went to ALSC (Association for Library Services to Children) for some help, This website has great ideas for helping you put together a script, Readers Theater: A "How to" Guide.
It is at this ALSC website that I found out I wasn't in trouble with copyright laws because "Fair Use" is in play. In other words if you adapt a copyrighted work for education use such as Readers Theater is is considered "Fair Use." The scripts I have put together are for library programs only and I do not post them on the Web. I feel so much better.
