I'd like to suggest USBBY's three—but soon to be four— book series, "Br idges to Understanding" to those who might not be aware of it. The new edition will be available in late September and is called *Bridges to Understanding: Envisioning the World through Children's Books* edited by Linda M. Pavonetti (Scarecrow, 2011). Each of the books reviews children's books, with some YA award winners, tha t were originally published outside the US or that substantially add to the understanding of other nations, their people, and customs. The new book has more than 700 reviews by librarians, teachers, and academics. The previous three are: * Boundaries with Children's Books* edited by Doris Gebel (Scarecrow, 2006)
*--The World through Children's Books* edited by Susan Stan (Scarecrow,
2002) and
*--Children's Books from Other Countries* edited by Cal Tomlinson
(Scarecrow, 1998). Linda
