About the Reviewer:
For Selene, reading all kinds of books has long been a favorite
pastime - especially reading a good story. Experiencing different
characters, situations, places and times through reading is
a great way, she believes, to learn and develop perspective,
compassion and understanding about the world and the diverse
experience of others. A growing fascination regarding how
to share this love has lead her to the Library and Information
Science Master's degree program and more specifically the
Multicultural Children's Literature class. She is delighted
to find there are so many books that will expose the reader
to a rich, wide range of experiences from which to draw inspiration.
As she continues reading, she looks forward to connecting
others with these stories in her role as a librarian!
