Each entry includes: a book talk to engage young readers; an activity to help them understand and personalize the topic; and discussion questions to aid in the emotional development of elementary school readers. Kitain also encourages involvement with dramatic arts, movement, and music to build student confidence and a lifelong love of reading. ""Shelf Esteem"" fills two critical library needs.
