Editorial Reviews

School Library Journal
Doubling the number of books listed in her first edition of Fiction Sequels (McFarland, 1990; o.p.), Anderson compiles about 3000 annotated titles and over 400 authors in this guide to sequels, sequences, and series for older readers. Criteria include interest and age appropriateness, literary value, and broad appeal. The arrangement by author is clear, and the annotations are good. Grade levels are not included. Only a few small quibbles: Rene Goscinny's "Asterix" comic series is listed, but not Herge's "Tintin" books; a few authors' names are misspelled; and yes, there are some books missing in a few of the listings. Still, this is an essential readers' services tool to answer the important "what comes next" question. Sequels in Children's Literature contains about 7500 titles listed in sequence for picture books and series literature for children through sixth grade. The entries are arranged by author and include brief annotations and grade levels. This terrific resource covers current popular titles and favorite older series. Every juvenile reference collection needs this book.-Bette Ammon, Missoula Public Library, MT
