Evaluate the Book!!!

Effectively Evaluating Children's Books


There are many things to consider when evaluating children's books such as language, visuals, and much more.

  • Content

The content of the book is important because this will help you decide if the book is appropriate for your student's. You don't want to pick a book that student's are unable to read.

  • Language

The language is important when choosing a book because of the grade level of your students. It is important to make sure the vocabulary in the book is appropriate for your students.


  • Visuals

Visuals are important with the books you chose for your students. The pictures in the book should relate to the story, this will help student's understand the story.
