Welcome to Mindy's Book Lists.
I am a librarian and avid reader of children's/YA books. I have been blogging about books since 2003, and I have been compiling these lists since 2006 as a way of tracking what I read. The goal is to create lists that capture the "harder to search" elements of books for all those times you wish you could find those specific things.
A Few Housekeeping Notes:
Specific Lists:
These "By the Cover" lists were started as a way to track cover elements for use in book displays at the library.
General Lists
Picture Books (Grades PreK to 2 Interest)
Children's Fiction (Grades 3 to 6 Interest)
Teen Fiction (Grades 7 to 12 Interest)
****Books for Adults are not really my specialty, so these lists are kind of slim pickings.
