Publisher's Note An educational consultant helps parents, teachers, librarians and other caregivers find books that children will want to read and talk about, promoting meaning and pleasure in their reading, and including over 100 great book recommendations. Original.
Industry Reviews "The book has a cheerful, chatty tone--each selection contains a story synopsis, questions about the characters and a list of related titles--and yet there is also something poignant here. In beseeching parents to make conversation with their children, and reminding them to 'be patient' and 'try listening,' the author hints at an impoverishment in American homes that has come, perhaps, with all those TV hours logged by Nielsen."
