This resource for librarians introduces some 1,200 popular fiction series appropriate for elementary readers. Annotations describe each series' appeal and list characters, location, the original publisher, publishing dates, genre, and grade level range. A numbered list of titles in the series follows. The volume is indexed by author, title, and genre/subject. Included in the appendix are three lists of suggested books for boys, girls, and ESL students/reluctant readers.

Because readers have such a vast array of books from which to choose, and the fact that once into a series kids want to read all of the titles available, this volume will be a great help. It can sort out Mary Kate and Ashley titles from the Bobbsey Twins and the kids from the Polk Street School from the adventuring kids of the Bailey School. The scope and content are very broad as the authors have searched reviewing sources, compilations such as Children's Catalog, online sources including publisher and author Web sites, bookselling sites, and series sites maintained by several libraries. Those series selected are content-based groupings of books with a consistent theme, setting, or group of characters, and three or more titles to their name. Priority was given to newer series but old favorites are also included. Arranged alphabetically by series name, each entry includes author, publisher, date of publication, grade level, genre, an annotation, and a list of the titles. Where applicable, the availability of Accelerated Reader Resources is noted. Appendixes include "Books for Boys," "Books for Girls," "Books for Reluctant Readers/ESL Students," and "Developing Series." This is a useful resource, arranged in a most functional way, and any library serving children could well make use of it.-Elaine Lesh Morgan, Multnomah County Library, Portland, OR Copyright 2005 Reed Business Information.
