Welcome to the booksforchildren wiki.

 

I developed this site so that parents, teachers, and other enthusiastic readers can share ideas about books for children and young adults.

 

You can find books in several ways. You can browse the list of books, which includes links to brief reviews posted by wiki participants. You can search the wiki using the search box at the top right-hand corner of the screen, browse a  list of tags or categories with which the books have been marked (for example, mystery, picture books, New York,  or beginning chapter books),  to see which books have been marked with those tags. And you can click on "Recent Activity" in the sidebar to see what's been posted lately.

 

What's your favorite book for children or young adults? Because this is a wiki, you can share your views by editing existing pages and adding new pages. 

 

• To edit a page, you need to login. Click on "login" above. Clicking on "Edit page" at the top of the screen will also take you to the login screen. The wiki password is reading. 

• Once you've logged in, click on "Edit page,"  type what you like, and then click on "Save" at the bottom of the screen. You can edit existing pages to share your opinions about books listed on the wiki.

• You can also share your opinion using the wiki's comments feature. Just click on "Comments" above any page to post comments.  (See below for an example.) 

• You can create new pages to add books to the wiki.

• Use the wish list page to ask for recommendations from other wiki participants.

 

Please feel free to post as much or as little as you like. But please don't feel that you need to be an expert to post. I'd love to see every visitor post one favorite book, and I welcome postings about both recent books and old favorites.

 

If you have questions or suggestions, please e-mail me. You can also use the "Help" link at the top of the page to reach pbwiki.com's help resources. You may also want to check out pbwiki.com's introductory tour and some of their introductory materials for educators.
