Dear Friends of the Children’s Literature Bookshelf: It has been a pleasure writing these columns for you and your family. I hope that the titles have brought joy and insight to you. I know that I have benefited greatly from writing the book talks for the Southern Nebraska Register. May you and your family have a Blessed Christmas. 2019 should be another exciting year for children’s literature. Thank you so much!

You may read all the reviews of the past year (and of several previous years as well!) at this link. I hope that this list will give you some ideas for books that might make nice Christmas presents.
