Children's Literature Links
There are many wonderful sites for the study of children's literature; you
will find some of these linked into the course syllabus, with suggestions for
reading. Listed here you will find some of the most comprehensive general sites
I have found; please let me know if you find others you think should be listed
here. I have not listed commercial sites; I've tried, here, to stick to the
scholarly community--which, as you will see, is vast and diverse. Enjoy!
