    Literature and Literacy Roselmina Indrisano Boston University School of Education © 2008 Roselmina Indrisano 2 Introduction This annotated bibliography includes fifty books in the narrative genre that were selected for young readers. Each book or author is the recipient of one or more of the following awards: Caldecott and Newbery Awards, the American Library Association Notable Book Award, and the Coretta Scott King Award. The books are appropriate for readers in the first through sixth grades, with an approximately even distribution among the levels. Each entry in the bibliography includes: the complete reference; the level, as determined by The Fountas-Pinnell Leveled Book List K-8 (Heinneman, 2006) or the Fry Readability Formula (Fry, 1977); the awards; and three teaching ideas that are coded to selected standards in the Massachusetts English Language Arts Frameworks . A list of these standards is provided on page 52. In the few instances where the language and the structure of the text are more complex than the concepts, there is a note in the annotation to suggest that the book is suitable for reading aloud to younger learners. One of the teaching ideas for each book focuses on poetry. The number in parentheses that follows refers to the poetry anthology where the poem is published. The list of poetry anthologies is on pages 53-54. The author acknowledges, with gratitude, the assistance of Irene Papadopoulos Duros and Christine Leighton. Ms. Papadopoulos Duros reviewed the manuscript and computed the Fry readability formula for books that were not entered on the Fountas-Pinnell list. Ms. Leighton reviewed and summarized the literature on children’s reading interests that informed the selection of the books.
