I love reading children's books. I was excited to take this class in college, and am pleased with myself that I finally completed another book that I started in my College of Education courses. The text is simple to read and understand, and presents all the wonderful benefits of reading children's literature, and the many ways of responding to books, which can apply to children and adult books, and just makes the reader excited about reading children's literature. The authors also address issues like controversy over matters of censorship and stereotypes, and how to make sure that libraries include children of all cultures and backgrounds. There are multiple sidebars that evaluate different kinds of literature in terms of quality, multicultural effectiveness, exclusion, interest, and educational importance, usually doing a sample review of a specific book. In addition, the textbook provides so many examples of great books that I just wanted to go out and read them all.
