This invaluable directory serves both as a comprehensive guide to more than 300 literary works and as an organizational tool for starting a values-based literature program. Each literary work is detailed with themes/cultural setting, ethical values and the academic activities contained in the accompanying Novel/Drama curriculum unit. The works are also listed by grade level, reading level, video availability and related curricular areas. Creating a Values-Based Literature Program has proved to be an essential reference tool for English departments, reading specialists, and librarians across the country.
