Book Description
This authoritative guide–with a core focus on reading readiness and helping position children to succeed in school–offers more than 300 age-appropriate and subject-specific book selections from librarians for reading time with children. From board and picture books to hot new books, these recommendations reflect family, community, play, and the environment. Mirroring a child’s world as they grow and mature, chapters include segments on reading together, friendship, places near and far, and making believe. These titles have been culled from the American Library Association’s “”best”” lists and professional review journals.
