Chapter 14: Children's Literature Briefly

I thought informational books were so boring in elementary, middle, and high school. This chapter does have some good suggestions to use in the classroom for using informational books in the classroom to make it interesting. For example, I would use activity books in my classroom because I feel this would keep the children engaged. Photo essays would also be very interesting to use in the classroom to teach students about facts and past times. I feel this chapter will be very helpful for me in the future.
