The holiday season has already begun, so you might want to begin thinking about what gifts to give your favorite Kiddos this year. Might I suggest a few good books.
For the second year now, the Bank Street Children's Book Committee is pleased to offer a free, fully vetted selection of some of some excellent books published in 2021 for your holiday gift giving. Each book has been read by at least two committee members, all professionals in the field of children's literature. As with all of our Best Books lists, this year's edition is annotated and listed according to age and category. I think you will find there is something for all the Kiddos on your holiday list.
Don't forget to check out last year's edition of The Best Children's Book of 2020 Holiday Gift Edition. You just might find exactly what your young reader would like there.
Many of the books listed in both these editions have also been read and reviewed by a young reviewer and have been chosen for our Bank Street Pick of the Month. You can read their comments HERE.
Speaking of young reviewers, they are so much a part of what the committee does and we are often amazed at their insights. If you have a young reader who might be interested in participating in our young reviewer program, you can find information about it HERE. Our young reviewers range in age from toddler through high school. Participants read and review books that are currently being considered by the Children's Book Committee for our Best Books of the Year list and our Children's Book Awards.
For more information about our program, please email us at youngreviewers@bankstreet.edu
I'm going to pass this along to my kids. Thanks!
