Review: http://booklistonline.com/Multicultur...
Reference Type: Bibliography
Content Scope: This annotated bibliography of children’s books includes more than 1,100 titles published since 1980 arranged under four ethnic groups--African Americans, Asian Americans, Hispanic Americans, and Native Americans.
Accuracy, Authority, Bias: The author of this bibliography is a middle school teacher.
Arrangement and Presentation: This book is divided into ethnic sections and separated by grade levels K-3 and 4-8. Under each of these, titles are grouped under four headings--“Informational Nonfiction,” “Biographies/Autobiographies,” “Historical/Realistic Fiction,” and “Folktales/Myths/Legends.”
Relation to similar works: There is no resource like this in the library. Because of the high number of diverse students at this library, this reference will be a great resource for the LMS and teachers in selecting books to meet their students needs.
Timeliness and Permanence: Although this resource was printed in 1996, it will still be of value to the LMS and teachers as it recommends great multicultural literature to meet diverse ethnic groups needs.
Accessibility and Diversity: LMS and Teachers will be able to utilize this resource to choose books to meet the needs of students in their school.
