Popular Series Fiction For Middle School And Teen Readers/A Reading And Selection Guide
Libraries Unlimited | Rebecca L. Thomas and Catherine Barr | Reference | Available ISBN 10: 1591582024 ISBN 13: 9781591582021 Because of their popularity, books in series are great vehicles for fostering literacy among all types of readers, who are almost always adamant about reading every title in the series—in series order. Yet traditional information sources on children’s and YA literature include very little about series fiction, so librarians often have difficulty managing this literature. This guide, geared to readers in middle to high school, will be a rich resource and time-saver for librarians who work with tweens and teens. It introduces users to the best and most popular fiction series of today, covering approximately 800 series appropriate for middle and high school readers. For each series, the authors provide an annotation that describes the series’ appeal and lists characters, and location. The original publisher of the series is given, along with the range of dates over which the series was published, a grade level range, and genre.

This ideal reference book might even be browsed by the teens themselves. It is an excellent, high quality resource that no public or school library should be without.”—VOYA, August 2005 “This is the book that many of us have been waiting for or wishing we had time to write… this is an excellent tool for school and public librarians who work with teen and tween readers. It should be in every school and public library.”—Booklist, July 1, 2005 |
