520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc. Designed to accompany the use of children's books from all genres, this exceptional text helps teachers meet the challenge of selecting the best literature for children for the classroom, library, or home. Unlike an anthology of children's literature, which includes selected chapters or text summaries, the seventh edition of this highly-regarded text teaches how to make appropriate judgments about what constitutes quality children's literature. Using the critical standards for all literature, selections are explained and are supplemented by special issues in judging books for children. Taking readers through the definitions of literary terms by reviewing plot, character, theme, setting, point of view, style, and tone, Lukens provides sound criteria for assessing the merit of children's books. The text also includes chapters on rhymes, poetry, biography, and informational books. Special sections on censorship and the importance of reading aloud as well as emphasis on multicultural literature expose students to critical topics in children's literature.
