Product Description

Review

"Povsic has expanded her Eastern Europe children's guides that appeared in Reading Teacher (1980-1982) into a comprehensive annotated bibliography of 315 books either translated or written in English from 1900 to 1984. Seven East European countries are covered, with a separate volume on the USSR in preparation. Each country, listed in alphabetical order, has book reviews under the headings of traditional literature, historical fiction, biography and autobiography, and other fiction for children (kindergarten through 9th grade). Not only does this book fill a gap in ethnic literature, but the extensive annotations, the three separate indexes, and the inclusion of folk and fairy tales add to its reference value. ... Recommended for public libraries and university libraries that have children's literature programs." -- Choice
