[LM_NET] SHARE: Books about the Middle East

[Shonda Brisco <sbrisco@GMAIL.COM>]

I just added a new title to our Curriculum Materials Library that I
wanted to share with you.  It is entitled:  "Books about the Middle
East: Selecting and Using Them with Children and Adolescents" by Tami
Craft Al-Hazza and Katherine Toth Bucher. Linworth (2008).

This is a wonderful professional title for school librarians,
teachers, and those teaching K-12 pre-service teachers at the academic
level.  The resource provides an overview of the Middle East, as well
as providing cultural information to be considered when working with
students from the Middle East.  The title provides evaluation
guidelines for selecting books, review sources of the materials
listed, grade level, reading levels, summaries of the books, and ways
to integrate those materials into the curriculum.

If you have been searching for a resource to provide guidance in
selecting these types of materials for your students or faculty, I
would most definitely consider adding this title to your professional
resources.  I look forward to using this resource immediately to add
materials to our collection, and I hope that you will find it very
useful too!  Here's a link if you're interested:
