La Vergne Rosow
 Accessing the Classics is a guide that will allow the reader a leisurely look at each of the books shown and will help the reader identify where to start. Critical Acclaim“Much has been written on the subject of teaching the classics to children, young adults, and adults, but few authors offer insights into using the classics to improve reading skills. Rosow fills this significant gap in the literature by providing annotated lists of some of the best literature of all time, arranged by reading levels from from basic to intermediate and advanced. Major time periods, formats, and genres are represented. Entries contain partial plot summaries, ideas about how the books might be used, and ways in which alternate versions or formats provide support. Icons indicating the presence of illustrations, large print, "author pick," student favorite, and affordability further guide the reader or teacher to the right sources. The intended audience is wide-ranging and includes anyone who wishes to foster language and literacy skills.
