Very readable. This book does not cover what you can do with the books, but it does give a comprehensive list that will keep your children reading good literature. I think this will be a huge resource in our reading this coming school year.

The book lists are somewhat helpful, but heavy on popular books. Gladys Hunt spends several pages defending the Harry Potter series. Christianbook.com has other book lists I would recommend over this - search for Bluedorn &/or F.A.C.E.
