Using Children’s Literature in Preschool

Comprehending and Enjoying Books

Lesley Mandel Morrow and Linda B. Gambrell

Emphasizing the importance of children’s literature in the preschool classroom, this book shows how to read stories effectively to young children and create a classroom literacy center.

You’ll find out how to use literature to help preschoolers understand concepts about books, learn within the content areas, and develop reading comprehension. And you can strengthen the home-school connection with literature-based activities that parents can use with their children outside the classroom.
