Description
Evaluating and Promoting Nonfiction for Children and Young Adults isn’t another bibliography that will quickly become outdated. Instead, it situates nonfiction resources within the recent emphasis on reading nonfiction as a way of enhancing critical thinking and combating susceptibility to “fake news.”
Donald Latham offers strategies for evaluating nonfiction for the purposes of collection development, providing readers’ advisory, and developing programs using nonfiction for children and young adults.
The book includes lists of professional resources as well as recommended nonfiction titles.
