description: This new, timesaving resource begins with a concise description of apprentice readers, as they pass through the emergent, beginning, and developing stages on the path to literacy. Each stage is linked to the kinds of books that best support the reader through these critical early years. The author completes this guide with over 600 book entries placed on 15 levelled lists. Each title is followed by an annotation, topic keywords, and publisher information. Nonfiction books and multicultural literature are specially noted. Book list pages are color-coded to correspond to the five stages of early reading development.
