“What Should I Read Aloud?”
New volume by Nancy A. Anderson is a guide to 200 best-selling picture books.
I followed a link to a 2001 essay on reading comprehension with links to a painfully dated article (list of online resources, none of which are younger than 6 years old) at http://www.readingonline.org/, the home page of which said "International Reading Association, offers hundreds of articles on a range of topics in reading education. To find articles that match your particular interests, simply search or browse the author, title, and subject indexes.
For more resources on literacy teaching and learning, visit the association’s main website, at www.reading.org."
Welp, being internet savvy, I figured that this was their way of dealing with this site being "the old one," and wondering if they'd ever heard of redirecting (or updating... or weeding...) and went to reading.org to check it out.
I guess that first article blurb says it all. Obviously we should read what sells best.
Barf.

So sorry the title of my new book made you barf! It was written for parents who historically choose grocery store books for their children. What Should I Read Aloud? A Guide to 200 Best-Selling Picture Books is based on sales for the past 100 years, indicating what parents, grandparents, educators, and librarians have purchased for their children. It likely reflects what you have already read to your children.
