Children's Literature Web Guide
http://people.ucalgary.ca/~dkbrown/index.html

A CONTENT:
Librarians will love this very complete web guide to Children's Literature Resources.

B AESTHETICS:
This site has little to no graphics, and uses tables extensively and to organize its data efficiently.

B+ ORGANIZATION:
This site is basically two levels deep, with every category easily accessible from the home page.

REVIEW:
This site is a K12 Librarian's dream. From Children's Books Online to Storyteller's resources to Children's Book Publishers and so much more, this site provides comprehensive links to children's literature of all genres. Also included are links to publishers, awards (Canadian and American),Conferences... over 25 categories in all. I did not find that the categories on the tableless page correlated exactly to the tabled home page, which made me worry that I was missing out on seeing all categories and understanding the layout of the site completely.
