Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

Although the nature of the content hasn't changed, the larger trim size, livelier page design, and more logical arrangement of information make this latest Handbook interesting to read and easy to use. In only two to three pages per book, the authors provide an abundance of information about each year's Newbery Medalist and Honor titles, including plot summary, tips for sharing, author information, a sample booktalk, curriculum connections, and related titles. Both print and electronic resources are cited. Shaded sidebars offer ordering information, genres, themes, readability and interest levels, and citations for reviews. The volume concludes with two appendixes (resources and a complete listing of Newbery Medal and Honor books) and two indexes (author/title and subject/genre). A useful update.-Sue Burgess, Framingham State College, MA
