Many people think that kids should pick whatever book they’re reading, I’ve come to believe that having children select from a pre-selected set of short texts is better. [...]

Eve Bunting is a master of helping children to understand the world around them and validating emotions. She’s published over 200 books and some of her best known work tackles issues including war, unrest and the loss of a friend.
Eve Bunting is our guest on this edition of Just One More Book.
Books mentioned:
- Robinson Crusoe
- Swiss Family Robinson

- Gleam and Glow
- Rudi’s Pond
- Fly Away Home

A finely-honed, well-crafted pounding of a picture book is a beautiful thing. I scour the Internet for such items day after day but they're far more difficult to find than you might think. Thank God for Your Neighborhood Librarian then. In her post One meatball, our hero takes a good long look at the Eve Bunting title One Green Apple and she dinna no like what she see.
And while we're on this site, this librarian also has a post on hipster kidlit material that's worth a glance. This may well be my favorite new blog (new = blog I just found).

Valerie Kuklenski talks to Eve Bunting for the Los Angeles Times. It's a fascinating article, and I particularly what Bunting has to say about her prefered genre--the picture book:
- "'Most of my books are picture books,' Bunting says. 'Clint Eastwood was talking about jazz, and he said, 'You don't need that many notes to make a point.' I think that's sort of the way it is with picture books. You can say what you want to say in a short form. And that's mostly what Eve Bunting books are. I try to say something worthwhile in few words.'"
