For introductory courses on K-8 reading Methods courses.
More than any other text available, this innovative book links quality children's books to an effective reading and language arts program. It hinges on the philosophy that teachers who have a passion for literature influence their students to become passionate about reading. An effective combination of current information on children's book titles, interviews with influential authors, and language arts strategies create a blueprint for establishing a meaningful children's literature methods text for contemporary classrooms. An original cover illustrated by Caldecott-winning David Wisniewski and interior artwork by children's author Steven Kellogg distinguish this text's design.
