REVIEW:
Teachers, librarians, and parents will find a wealth of information at the Children's
Literature site. Teachers can easily compile a booklist to accompany a unit of
study using the extensive archive of reviews. The archive is categorized by more than sixty themes, ranging from baseball to dinosaurs to Ellis Island to space exploration. Each month new
reviews as well as interviews with authors and illustrators are featured. The
themes usually begin with a short introduction and each book
review includes a short summary, age recommendations, awards won, and purchasing
information. Teaching materials for many of the books are available with links
to more teaching resources. Additionally, the site provides thousands of links to author/illustrator
sites, publisher sites, children's resources, parent and teacher resources, other children's literature
collections, and information on upcoming events related to children's literature.
