Annotations

The original annotated bibliography was created to help teachers, administrators, librarians and parents make informed choices when selecting books for children. These annotations were compiled and edited for consistency by Donna Steffes and Cheryl Halfyard.  Final edits were done by the web master (me).  
The Post 2001 Annotations are written and edited solely by me and are simple summaries and recommendations.

How to Use The  Annotations

Many books have universal themes and appeal.  For that reason we have included them on several, if not all, of the grade recommended lists.  To save space and allow for faster page loading, the annotation is provided only once - in the first grade range for which the book is recommended.  Books that are recommended for more than one grade range will have links back to each list.  Books that are only recommended for one grade range will have just one link back to that list.   The newest annotations, Post 2001, are listed on one page with grade links at the end of the summary.
