Once upon a time there was a little princess. Her name was Ellen. She lived with her mother the queen in a great house by the sea. She had three brothers. One day, as they were playing ball, one of her brothers threw the ball over the house. Ellen ran to get it, but she did not come back. The three brothers looked for her. They looked and looked, but they could not find her. Day after day went by. At last the oldest brother went to a wise man and asked what to do. "The princess is with the elves. She is in the Dark Tower," said the wise man. "Where is the Dark Tower?" asked the oldest brother. "It is far away," said the wise man. "You cannot find it." "I can and I will find it. Tell me where it is," said the oldest brother. The wise man told him, and the oldest brother set off at once. The other brothers waited. They waited long, but the oldest brother did not come back. Then the next brother went to the wise man. The wise man told him as he had told the oldest brother. Then the next brother set out to find the Dark Tower. The youngest brother waited. He waited long, but no one came. Now the youngest brother was called Childe Rowland.
Two of the most trusted reviewers in the field join with top authors, illustrators, and critics in a definitive guide to choosing books for children—and nurturing their love of reading. A FAMILY OF READERS is the definitive resource for parents interested in enriching the reading lives of their children. It’s divided into four sections: 1. Reading to Them: Choosing and sharing board books and picture books with babies and very young children. 2. Reading with Them: Launching the new reader with easy readers and chapter books. 3. Reading on Their Own: Exploring what children read—and how they read—by genre and gender. 4. Leaving Them Alone: Respecting the reading privacy of the young adult. Roger Sutton knows how and why children read. He must, as the editor in chief of THE HORN BOOK, which since 1924 has been America’s best source for reviews of books for young readers. But for many parents, selecting books for their children can make them feel lost. Now, in this essential resource, Roger Sutton and Martha V. Parravano, executive editor at the magazine, offer thoughtful essays that consider how books are read to (and then by) young people. They invite such leading authors and artists as Maurice Sendak, Katherine Paterson, Margaret Mahy, and Jon Scieszka, as well as a selection of top critics, to add their voices about the genres they know best. The result is an indispensable readers’ companion to everything from wordless board books to the most complex and daring young adult novels.
