Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
Read It Again!
Liz C. Rothlein · 1993
66/100
👎 Skip It
A practical educator guide anchored to eight picture-book classics that every early childhood teacher already knows — the activity and discussion structure has real classroom value. The problem is it's a 1993 print resource, the featured titles are so well-documented elsewhere that the guide adds limited insight, and it's out of print with no modern equivalent to point to. An interesting find for a vintage curriculum collector, but not something most readers need to seek out today.
