Theory, Practice and More
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
Seldom did I read and enjoy a book that assembles theory, practice and methodological councelling. Each chapter will provide you with the theory concerning genre and historical perspective of the literary works as well as the writers that have become the representatives of the literature aimed for children and young adults. This is a book to buy, read, enjoy and cherish
Don't Re-Sell This One

Through the Eyes of a Child: An Introduction to Children's Literature is an essential for anyone thinking of teaching or merely interested in children's literature. The book holds thousands of resources, and serves as a repository of the best children's books for the beginning reader through young adult. Not only was the book a helpful resource in taking a children's lit class, it also brought me back to my childhood and taught me new lessons of once-loved books. If you have an opportunity to take a course that requires this book, don't sell it back, because you'll be using it for years to come!

Thorough course in literature for children
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I just got finished using this book for a course in Children's Literature, and it was extremely informative.Since I am interested in children's literature (to read, and possibly to write), it was great to find out about all the different facets of literature for children, from historical children's lit, to multicultural lit, to award-winning literature. If you are a teacher and haven't taken a course on children's literature, this book is a must-read (it even includes helps for the classroom at the end of each chapter). If you want to write for children, check this out -- it's a veritable goldmine of information to get your book noticed & published.
The very best teacher's reference for children's literature.

Norton has once again done the impossible-- making her best-selling text on children's literature even better. The newest edition provides concise yet helpful summaries of the finest in children's books, and offers an updated CD-ROM tool to help teachers search and discover just right books. I heartily recommend it to all elementary teachers!
