    4.0 out of 5 stars Children's Literature for Adults, May 1, 2001

    This book offers indepth information about a variety of topics concerning childrens literature. In the first chapters it focuses on the development of children and their perceptions of literature at different ages. It then informs the reader about the historical development of children's literature. The biggest part of the book, however, is about the different genres of literature available. What I liked about this book was that it offered many examples and reading samples. It also included several essays from children book authors who wrote about their profession. The teaching aids and the recommended reading at the end of each chapter proved helpful. However, some areas of this book, such as this one, are only helpful to people interested in child education as a profession.

    It is so important for college students that are majoring in education to get their hands on good teaching material on children's literature. Children's Books in Children's Hands is a fantastic piece to have in their educational tool box. Children's books that are current, great teaching suggestions and even though there is a chapter on diversity, this book displays diverse books throughout. And BRAVO to the authors on "Chapter 5: International Literature" for not putting this as an aside topic, adding it on at the back of the textbook OR including it with "multicultural books". International books should stand alone to be recognized and appreciated. Perhaps this will help the readers of this book not to be afraid to teach them.

    The resources are rich along with the "recommended books" lists. "Myeducationkit" is something that I pray will enrich my students knowledge on children's books forever!

    I look forward to co-teaching with this book and having my... Read more

    I received my book brand new, and when it came time to study for my midterm, I noticed that 3 chapters were completely missing from this book! Needless to say I am not very happy and will be returning it.
