I love finding new books to share. Here is a short list of
recently publishd children's literature that encourage depth
and complexity for kindergarten through eigth-grade
students. Many of them have received Caldecott and Newbery
awards; all of them deserve attention. If you have
discovered a new treasure, let us know: jeffery@kingore.com
