Synopsis
In recent years teachers have turned more and more to children's literature to form the basis of their classroom language program. They have recognized the importance of children reading literature that is accessible in language and meaning, literature that "speaks to them." With Literacy Through Literature, teachers will be better able to implement a literature-based language program. It provides a feast of original ideas on offering literature in the classroom as part of a whole language/literacy program for children aged five to fifteen.

Synopsis
KATHLEEN KRULL’S LIVELY text traces the life of L. Frank Baum from his dreamy privileged childhood in mid-19th-century upstate New York through the many detours on his road to Oz. A failure as an actor, a breeder of prize chickens, a merchant in a wild west town, among other occupations, he finally made a success doing exactly what he had always loved to do: tell stories for children. Along the way, we see the antecedents of the Scarecrow, the Tin Man, green glasses, and other characters and attributes of the famous fantasy land. This is the first biography of L. Frank Baum that children can enjoy.

With the same verve she brought to her biography of Dr. Seuss, Kathleen Krull’s wry prose couples with Kevin Hawke’s exuberant paintings and drawings to create a book not to be missed by Oz fans of all ages.

Biography
Stan and Jan Berenstain were both born in 1923 in Philadelphia. They didn't know each other as children, but met later at school, at the Philadelphia College of Art. They liked each other right away, and found out that the both enjoyed the same kinds of books, plays, music and art. During World War II, Stan was a medical assistant in the Army, and Jan worked in an airplane factory. When the war was over, they got married and began to work together as artists and writers, primarily drawing cartoons for popular magazines. After having their two sons Leo and Michael, the Berenstains decided to write some funny children's books that their children and other children could read and enjoy. Their first published children's book was called The Big Honey Hunt . It was about a family of bears, who later became known as the "Berenstain Bears".

The Bear family had a brand new car. And what better way to break in a brand-new car than a big road trip!...

Synopsis
Mrs. Jane Tabby's kittens assume they are the only cats with wings in the world . . . until they discover a little kitten with wings of her own living in an abandoned building that is about to be demolished. Will they be able to rescue their new friend from the dangers of the city?

Annotation
Wishing to visit their mother, two winged cats leave their new country home to return to the city, where they discover a winged kitten in a building about to be demolished.

Publishers Weekly
Identical in format and length to its predecessor, Catwings , this new book picks up where that one left off. The four winged catsThelma, Roger, Harriet and Jamesare content in the country barn where they live, secretly cared for by humans Hank and Susan. But they would like to see their mother, and the dumpster where they were born. Only James and Harriet make the trip, and learn that the slums are being destroyed by demolition crews. Their mother and the dumpster have moved; instead, they find a winged kitten. After a brief reunion with their mother, who now lives amidst flower pots on an apartment roof, all three felines go to the farm. Some of this repeats the first book, such as the absence of a father, the mother who bravely, and perhaps somewhat curiously, sends the children away to a better life, and the rather dull goodness of the human boy and girl. Le Guin's graceful writingespecially of the adventurous rescue of the new member of the family and in the roof sceneis sweetly illuminated by Schindler's delicately tinted drawings. A Richard Jackson Book. Ages 7-10. (Mar.)

Synopsis
If you are hanging from a trapeze
And up sneaks a camel with bony knees,
Remember this rule, if you please—
Never talk to strangers.

This book brilliantly highlights situations that children will find themselves in—whether they’re at home and the doorbell rings, or playing in the park, or mailing a letter on their street—and tells them what to do if a stranger (always portrayed as a large animal, such as a rhino) approaches. Colorful, ’60s-style “psychedelic” artwork and witty, lively rhyme clearly spell out a message about safety that empowers kids, and that has never been more relevant.

Irma Joyce wrote many Golden Books during the 1960s.

George Buckett was a popular children’s book illustrator during the 1960s.

Annotation
Discusses different situations to help make important distinctions between people who are "safe" and people to avoid.

Children's Literature
First published in 1967, Never Talk to Strangers uses a repetitive rhyme scheme along with silly pictures to teach children not to interact with strangers, unless the stranger is someone they meet through family, friends, or a teacher. In these situations, it is not a stranger. Given the fact that we know more about who is most likely to harm a young child today than we did in 1967, it seems that those who might want to harm a child would insinuate themselves into the child's world through a trusted friend or relative. While we cannot teach children to be afraid of everyone they meet, we can do a better job of helping a child to trust his or her own instincts, rather than presenting a narrow view of stranger-fear. The highlights of this book are the silly animals stalking through its pages: the curly haired camel, the rhinoceros with an umbrella hanging from his tail as he reads the newspaper, and the brightly colored crocodile with the wickedly evil grin. While the message is told in an attractive manner, I have to question if this is the message we want to be telling. Reviewer: Wendy M. Smith-D'Arezzo
