How many titles are in Jennifer Holm's Boston Jane series? Which
fantasy series are suitable for grades 6 through 9? Are there good
series featuring computers? These are just some of the questions
that challenge middle and high school librarians as the popularity
of series fiction continues to grow. Series are not always easy to
manage. Many do not have a series title and the component volumes
can be hard to identify. This updated and expanded edition gives
librarians and their patrons a handy guide to the best and most
popular series, making it easier to satisfy readers' desire to read
all the books in a given series and then to find similar series to
enjoy. For each of the 700-plus series included, the authors
provide an annotation that describes the series' appeal and key
characteristics. Also included are the publisher, grade level,
genre, and a numbered list of the titles in the series with
publication dates. This reading guide and selection tool is an
invaluable resource for anyone working in school and public
libraries.
