In praise of Cynthia Rylant!

 

Anything by author and librarian Cynthia Rylant is a surefire winner! I fell in love with her books when I was a teacher and I am still a fan as a librarian. Her books fall in that range of books for emerging readers. They are early chapter books with heart. They contain humor and strong vocabulary words. We have them housed in easy readers, paperback and hardbound. We are glad to show you where they are for check out!

    Books about friendship are perfectly suited for the “younger set” as they are learning about friendship themselves. All of these characters have adventures and conundrums (!) with their friends. Some of Rylant’s series are Annie and Snowball; Brownie and Pearl; Henry and Mudge; Motor Mouse; and Poppleton.

It is a joy to see patrons share the books they loved as children with their now children and grandchildren!
