Naked Reading isn't quite what it sounds like, although the provocative title is certainly attention grabbing. It is an exciting examination of tween reading - what works, what doesn't, what teachers/parents/librarians can do to help encourage reading in this age group.
1001 Children's Books is a hefty book. Bring a bag - or a forklift - if you plan to buy this one or get it from the library. It is a treat to read, though. I was reminded of books I read and loved as a kid, and I was introduced to scads more that I would like to read some day.
Teachers, grandparents, parents or librarians looking for new material to encourage young readers should check out both of these books. They are tremendous resources!
