Introduction

            Hello, I am Geraldine Allen.  I have taught in the Art Department at University of the Cumberlands since 1995.  This course in Children’s Literature is one of the final electives toward completion of an Ed. D., which with a lot more work and luck, might be finished next year.  Much of my reading is related to various courses that I am teaching or taking, but I do occasionally find space for some pleasure reading as well, particularly with my granddaughter, who has renewed my interest in high quality children's literature.
