HOW SELECTIONS ARE MADE

Selection criteria have remained constant over the years. Quality of plot, theme, style, pace, characterization, and setting is essential for any story to be satisfying. In addition, for the picture-story book, the art-its harmony with the text-is vital. For nonfiction books, accuracy, organization, timeliness, and clarity of presentation as well as quality of writing and illustration need to be evaluated.
WHAT IS SELECTED AND FOR WHOM
The selected books run the gamut from rhymes, concepts, and picture-stories to adventure, fantasy, natural history, biography, and science. Books are chosen for readers from the toddler stage to the teenage years. Some are to be read aloud; some are for instruction; some are for fun; some are to be borrowed from a school or public library or bought as gifts. All were chosen with the intent of stimulating the imaginations of children and adults alike.
