5.0 out of 5 stars
Very imformative book,
By Shelley G. (Hockessin, Delaware United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Best Books for Young Teen Readers: Grades 7-10 (Hardcover)
I have never thought I could find a book that was packed with so much information! With over 1000 pages of book titles, authors and discriptions, it is easily a book I know I can trust. Best of all, all of its books are just for teens(Ages 12-18)! With all the books out these days that focus on trash, it's really hard to find a good book to read, in my opinion. I'm a book-loving teen, myself, constantly searching for a new book. The reason I like this book is because with so many titles, with descriptions, to choose from, I don't have to spend a lot of time at the library like I used to. =)

This review is from: Best Books for Young Teen Readers: Grades 7-10 (Hardcover)
As the title states, the reviews included are intended for books for those in grades seven through ten. This is a reference work and it contains short, one or two sentence reviews of both fiction and non-fiction young adult books. General reference books such as encyclopedias were not reviewed. The 2000 edition contains 11, 730 titles. Many of the books included contain review citations. The preface states that that Best Books For Young Adult Readers was designed to help librarians evaluate their current collection, build new collections, build reading lists and finally to provide reading guidance to young adults.
