Divided into three sections; Easy Books, Middle-Grade Readers and Young Adult; this book makes wonderful reading connections by theme, setting, voice and ideas and includes lists for horse lovers, a chapter about the best first chapters and more. Parents, teachers and librarians are often puzzled by the unending choices for reading material for young people. It starts when children are toddlers and doesn't end until the end of school. What's good, what's trash, what's going to hold their interest? Nancy Pearl, America's favourite librarian, points the way in "Book Crush".
