Description
This supplement to the eighth edition of A to Zoo updates the comprehensive subject guide that explores the wealth of new fiction and nonfiction picture books for young children.
This supplement follows the same format as the main edition, providing a subject guide to the latest fiction and nonfiction picture books for children in pre-K to second grade, followed by a bibliographic guide and title and illustrator indexes.
Comprising nearly 1,800 entries, all published in 2010 and 2011, the children's books in this supplement add to the more than 13,000 contained in the eighth edition, enabling school and public librarians to easily identify books about activities, animals, careers, character traits, foreign places, holidays, and more. The guide's simple organization helps in the preparation of themed story times, programs, and curricular units, and facilitates its use for both readers' advisory and collection development.
