| contents | The Beverly Cleary Handbook. Kelly, Joanne Authors Biographies Childrens Literature Class Activities Fiction Learning Activities Nonfiction Novels Student Projects After offering biographical background about Beverly Cleary, one of America's most popular children's authors, this book summarizes each of her novels, also noting illustration credits and any awards received by the work. The books are grouped by setting and/or age appropriateness. Settings of Cleary's life, which later became settings for her books, are described in a separate section and illustrated with photographs.

An appendix provides the answer keys for the independent activities. (Author/AEF) |
