Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

Pearson opens up the world of the picture book to 4th- through 12th-grade teachers and librarians: "…for many of the [picture] books, the story, the humor, the message, or the subject matter may be lost on the younger students." With a look into various concepts and teaching points (humor, science, history, biographies, art, and poetry), educators are given the opportunity to see how this genre can help shape teaching. In each section, Pearson gives samples of texts to be used, summaries, discussion questions, and activities. An excellent guide for choosing the right book for those older readers.–Bethany L. W.
