Ted Zaleski
We are delighted to introduce the first in a series of bookmarks featuring books 
recommended by great readers and leaders in Carroll County. Our first great reader is Ted Zaleski, Carroll County Director of Management and Budget. A lifelong learner, Ted regularly read books to his children. One night his daughter asked him, “Why are we always reading books about boys?” Ted notes, “Chastened by my daughter’s question I set out to find good books about girls. It was harder than I expected. They were out there, but I had to dig for them. I began to wonder how many girls were being fed a diet of books about boys by default. It occurred to me that other parents might be interested in the same kind of books I was looking for.”
