Reviews

The best thing about this collection is that it is an excellent list of read-alouds for this age group. This book has other valuable aspects, such as interesting author pages, bibliographies of many worthwhile read-alouds with no detailed prescriptions, and pullout pages for parents that provide tips to enjoy reading with their children. Recommended. * Teacher Librarian *
