Help your teen readers thrive with a collection for their diverse
tastes Praise for the previous edition: This is an extremely
valuable tool for young-adult school or public librarians.
RECOMMENDED. -- Library Media Connection For both novice and
experienced librarians who want to build teen collections that
actually circulate. -- School Library Journal Expert author Rollie
Welch, a longtime member of YALSA'S Best Books Committee and Quick
Picks for Reluctant Young Adult Readers, makes collection building
easy for school and public librarians through this extraordinarily
sound, field-tested and diverse selection of recommended, acclaimed
and award-winning titles. This remarkable new tool has been
extensively revised and expanded to include a comprehensive,
up-to-date guide to over 1,200 must-have titles across 34 different
genres that will appeal to teens of all different ages, genders,
ethnicities, and economic backgrounds. Along with material that
spans the gamut of fiction and non-fiction subgenres, from action
and adventure to fantasy to history to science-fiction, Welch
includes a number of innovative new sections dedicated to more
specific interests, like supernatural beings, edgier
"almost-street" literature, coming-of-age tales, graphic novels,
religious-themed fiction and new classics. Each title includes full
bibliographic information along with an annotation that provides a
brief plot and character summary, an audience recommendation, and
content advisories. A companion CD-ROM offers titles and lists in
various formats (Excel, Word) to facilitate easy collection
maintenance, selection, and acquisition. Novice and veteran
librarians alike will find this to be the ultimate go-to-source for
YA collection development.
