Children's Literature

So in my Children's Lit class, we are required to read a whole bunch of books, like 60-something. Most people might feel overwhelmed by this, but not me. :) I was overjoyed. I absolutely LOVE to read, but during a busy semester, with full-time school and 20 hours of work and the new responsibilities of marriage, I can never find the time. I came home and told Randy, my husband, "Now I can read as much as I want and not feel guilty, because it is part of my homework! WOO HOO!" I decided to write this in a blog instead of hard-copies for a couple of reasons. One, there is absolutely no way I could keep track of 60-something papers for and entire semester. Two, I want to be a special ed teacher, and a list of good children's books and what I thought about them would be a great resource for the rest of my career, and what better way to save something than on the everlasting world wide web? So here we go.
