Through carefully selected books, journals and multi-media resources, Lynne and Herman Sutter provide teachers and librarians with a broad collection of subjects to guide a student's research and broaden a child's interest base. Each subject, or Pathfinder, is followed by lists of bibliographies of reference, non-fiction and fiction books, and multi-media resources, including Internet sites, CD-ROMs, and video recordings. Using these lists as a starting point, a variety of resources can be brought together for in-depth studies of favorite subjects. The Sutters also describe different research approaches, including The Big6 Skills Approach, an information problem-solving process. Four appendices include books on research methods and teaching library skills, Web sites, creative citations and children's magazines and their web sites.
