Over the years, I have read many wonderful resources to help me get started with Literature Circles, and I would like to share my four favorite books with you. The material on my website is helpful, but if you are serious about implementing Literature Circles, I would suggest purchasing at least one of the books below. To help you decide which books might best meet your needs, I've written a short recommendation for each. Enjoy!
