Curated Bibliographies for Staff and Students

As part of my coursework in children's and young adult literature, I created annotated bibliographies and readers' advisory guides to support inclusive and engaging reading experiences across grade levels. These curated lists include award-winning books, high-interest titles, and texts featuring diverse characters and themes.

You’ll find resources sorted by genre, reading level, and accessibility features, including:

• Picture Books, Fiction, and Nonfiction

• Books that reflect disability representation and neurodiversity

• Recommended titles for emergent readers and reluctant readers

• Themed bibliographies for reading promotion and instructional planning
