Editorial Reviews

Book Description
Written in a conversational tone, this brief book introduces readers to the nature and genres of children's literature and enumerates the authors' favorite books for various purposes. Expands the booklists at the end of each chapter to include Ten Picture Books, Ten Easier to Read, Ten of Our Favorites, and Twenty to Thirty Others We Like. Keeps booklists and other topics related to literature brief in order to allow time for reading children's literature. For educators and administrators. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

The publisher, Prentice-Hall Career & Technology
Unlike most children's literature texts--which offer a comprehensive, in- depth study of all available background information--this book sheds light on the actual literature itself and its interaction with children. It is a companion volume, to be used in conjunction with children's literature, that provides a practical framework and background information while keeping the spotlight on the literary works themselves. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
