Celebrating Children's Choices: 25 Years of Children's Favorite Books

Join in a jubilant celebration of the Children's Choices project as the authors follow its 25-year evolution from a basic list of tested books for classroom use, to a rich literary resource sought after by anyone who encourages children to read for pleasure. You'll learn how the development of the Choices project- a partnership between the Children's Book Council and the International Reading Association- has mirrored developments in children's literacy instruction and research. And you'll gain new insights into how to use these children's favorites in your classroom; with activity-based chapters that group sample titles by grade levels and reflect the authors' actual classroom observations.
