Book Reviews of Children's Literature in the Elementary School
Book Review: A Bible of Children's Literature
Summary: 5 Stars
I am finishing up my master's program soon. In doing research on Charlotte Huck, I found this book. It has so much "no nonsense" information in it! Everything Huck has said since the first edition of this book has been right on the money. I am a literacy coach for K-5, and I think that this book is by far the best resource I have. It tells which books to use for certain grade levels, genres, subject areas... AND it tells a little bit about the books that the authors chose. It is chock full of the history of reading, understanding why literature is the way it is, and resources for all areas. I recommend this book for anyone who teaches reading to children, or has a love of reading to his/her own children!
