This is one of the best overviews of children's literature I have EVER seen. I plan on using this book in my new job as a Library Media Specialist. Each children's genre is covered as well as outstanding books in each genre. A must have if you are working with children's or YA literature! BRAVO!

I needed this book for a university class I'm taking. It was by far the best price compared to the university bookstore and a few other sources I checked.
