Because youngsters delight in reading about characters with the same first names as their own, this guide is a great way to motivate them to read! It helps users locate books by character names. The approximately 2,000 entries have publication information, type of book (fiction, picture book, biography), number of pages, and a brief annotation. The books listed are found in most children's library collections, and many are award winners (e.g., Boston Globe-Horn Book, Jane Addams, Coretta Scott King, Caldecott, Newbery, state readers' choices) or are listed in Children's Catalog or Elementary School Library Collection.
