Age of Reader:

Age of reader, or expected reader, is a way to limit out books that might be beyond the readers' reading level or emotional level.

• Books labeled in the Baby/Toddler range have very simple language, often very few words, and are designed to introduce children to books.  The age for these runs up to about the 2nd birthday, though some favorites may last much longer. These books are all picture books. 

• Books labeled in the Preschool range have fairly simple language, and are designed to introduce children to books.  They are not for the child to read, but for the care-giver and child to share.  These books are all picture books. Counting books, color books, and alphabet books are set for this age range. The age for these are about 2-4 years old.

• Books labeled in the 5-8 range can vary considerably, as this is the age most children develop their rudimentary reading skills.  This is also a very popular age for reading to children to encourage them to read.  Some of these books can be read by children who are good readers, but many of them are meant to be read to children.   While the majority of these books are picture books, all the easy readers are set for this age range.

• Books labeled in the 8-10 range are for solo readers.  While not all of the material will be easy, these can be read by many children with little adult assistance, but make great read-aloud sharing.  These books are both simpler chapter books and advanced picture books.

• Books labeled in the 10-12 range are more advanced versions of the 8-10 books.  They are often longer, with more complex ideas and vocabulary.  These books are mostly chapter books, but a few are picture books.

• Books labeled in the 12+ range and the 14+ range are for nearly adult or adult readers.  These books are for young adults and often deal with emotions and ideas that are mature, even when the vocabulary or writing style is simple. These books are almost entirely chapter books.  Almost all of the realistic fiction novels, also called contemporary problem novels, are set for this age.

• Books labeled in the 14+ range are very similar to the 12+. However, these titles are graphic in violence and may contain a great deal of profanity. They are particularly adult and may be disturbing for younger readers.

These divisions are not meant to be written in stone.  An advanced child may read out of their age level, or a more reluctant reader may need a lower age book to encourage further reading.  All of these books are emotionally and literarily fulfilling, and ought to be read regardless of these categories, which are meant only as a guide.

Format:

The books are divided into seven formats: picture books, chapter books, easy readers, stories without words, verse novels, and graphic novels.  Picture books does not necessarily mean the book is meant for young children; there are quite a few picture books that I wouldn't give to a child less than ten years old, such as Hiroshima No Pika.

• Picture book (Picture) means that the art is as integral, if not more so, to the "reading" experience as the words.

• Chapter books (Chapter) are usually novels, but can be long stories, where pictures are fewer in number and seem to be an addition to the text, but not essential to it.

• Beginning Readers, (Easy Reader), are those books, like Frog and Toad are Friends, which combine careful vocabulary choices for beginning readers, with a large, pleasant font, and pictures.

• Stories without Words (Picture w/o words) are picture books where there are no, or very few,  words.  These books will appear on a picture book search as well.

• Graphic novels (Graphic Novel) are what used to be called comic book compilations. While they have existed for decades, it is only recently that they have come to be a recognized form of children's/YA literature, and so finally found acceptance among awarding committees and librarians.

• Verse novels (Verse Novel) are collections of poems that have a unified story, rather than separate poems that may share a theme. These poems together have a protagonist and a plot.

• Occasionally, a book will be labelled with (Chapter/Picture), which means that I couldn't decide into which category the book fell, so it has both. These are often science books, where the illustrations are a very important part of the content, the text runs longer than the usual picture book (32-40 pages), or the chapter format can remain intact.

• Reference books (Reference) do not figure largely in the database, but there are several dozen. These books are not necessarily meant to be read cover to cover, but contain parts. Encyclopedias, atlases, guides, almanacs, and chronologies are kinds of reference volumes.

Setting:

There is a bias toward the United States because most of these books were published originally in the U.S. by American authors.  If you want a specific state or country, such as Florida or Turkey, then use the keyword search.

• Some countries, such as China, England, France, and Japan appear separately because a large number of stories are set in these locations.

• United States are books which specifically state they are set in the U.S.   There are many books which may be set there, but unless it it clear it is not assumed to be set there.  By mixing the ethnicity and location menus, different U.S. ethnicities and nationalities may be found.

• Outside the United States is provided for an easy limit to all books not set in the United States.

• Africa includes all countries on the African continent except Egypt, which is set for Mid-East.

• Mexico/Latin America includes Middle America, but not the Caribbean, which has its own drop-down option.

• South Asia includes Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Pakistan, Nepal, and Sri Lanka, Afghanistan, and the Maldives.

Genre:

There are a number of genres represented in the database, but the most frequent is one form of fiction or another.  Fiction is therefore divided into several sub-grouping. Below is a description of each genre grouping:

Abecedary (Alphabet)	Meant for young children to learn the alphabet.
Animal tale	Any story where animals, plants, or inanimate objects play a large part, and behave anthropomorphically.
Art	How to make art or instructional material about art.
Autobiography	Memoirs and autobiographies of a life by the survivor of that life.
Biography	Biographies of historical figures.
Colors	Meant for young children to learn colors.
Counting	Meant for young children to learn numbers and counting.
Cumulative	For stories that build on themselves and repeat (Such as "The House that Jack Built").
Fantasy	A kind of fiction with fantastic settings, characters, and events.
Fiction	The largest group.  Incorporates the many kinds of fiction in the database including mystery, fantasy, historical fiction, realistic fiction, science fiction, folktales, horror, and general fiction.
Folktale	Anything that is mythical or  legendary, or is a fairy tale, falls into this genre.  Folktales may not be given a location, but are usually given the source ethnicity or nationality.  If only fairy tales are desired, use the keyword search.
Historical Fiction	Fiction set in a particular period, whose events and characters reflect that period, but may be only loosely related to historical events.
History	Reflecting what is considered history, dealing with historical events, people, or objects.
Horror	Fiction that is frightening and inducing feelings of terror.
How-To	Books that instruct how to perform a specific task such as sign language or gardening.
Mathematics	More advanced than counting books, these try to make numbers and mathematics enjoyable.
Music	Books containing lyrics and music to songs.
Mystery	A kind of fiction. Consists of books that deal with supernatural phenomena, as well as books revolving around "whodunit."  Use the keyword search for more specific searches.
Non-Fiction	Incorporates the many kinds of non-fiction in the database including science, social studies, history, geography, biography, autobiography, mathematics, and how-to.
Poetry	Poetry may be rhyming or not, and may include mother goose or blank verse by great poets. For more specific needs, use the keyword search.
Realistic Fiction	A gritty fiction dealing with serious issues for the older reader.   Examples include The Great Gilly Hopkins or What Jamie Saw.
Science	Books that cover the various life and physical sciences, such biology, physiology, physics, chemistry, and more. Combine with a keyword search on the specific science for a more exact search.
Science Fiction	Like fantasy in that they usually occur in incredible places, but they offer some kind of a pseudo-scientific explanation for the events.  Often occurs in the future.
Social Studies	Realistic, non-fiction meant to educate children about other cultures, people, and themselves.
Theater	Plays. There are currently only four items in this catagory from the represented awards.
Thriller	Suspense is dominant in this type of story, including chases and mysteries, but not necessarily a whodunnit.

Historical Period:

Used for historical fiction and biographies, the divisions have a Eurocentric bias, as well as a bias toward United States history.  The divisions are meant to be guides for a broad area of time.  Some areas dealt with frequently deserved their own sub-division, such as Civil War being distinct from 19th-century.   You can do a keyword search on other centuries, such as the 16th Century.

Prehistoric	Covering times before civilization.
Ancient	Covering from about 3000 BCE - 500 CE.*
Medieval	Covering about 500 CE - 1500 CE.
Renaissance	Covering about 1500 CE - 1700 CE.
17th Century	Covering from 1600-1699 CE.
American Revolution	Covering the American Revolutionary War.
18th Century	Covering history from 1700 CE through 1799 CE including the American Revolution War.
American Civil War	Covering the American Civil War (1861-1865).
19th Century	Covering history from 1800 CE through 1890 CE including the American Civil War.
Turn of the Century	Covering about 1890 CE through 1914 CE
World War I	Covering about 1914 CE through 1929 CE, but most are directly related to the First World War.
1920s	Covering about 1920 CE through 1929 CE, not usually related to World War I.
1930s	Covering 1930 CE through 1939 CE.
Depression	Covering 1930 CE through 1945 CE, especially the great economic Depression world-wide.
1940s	Covering 1940 CE through 1949 CE.
World War II	Covering about 1942 CE through 1950 CE, but may go back earlier because the Second World War started earlier in European countries.
1950s	Covering about 1950 CE through 1959 CE.
1960s	Covering about 1960 CE through 1969 CE.
1970s	Covering about 1970 CE through 1979 CE.
1980s	Covering about 1980 CE through 1989 CE.
Contemporary	Most useful for fiction. Usually covering about 1950 to present when the material seems to be contemporary or timeless when read, and does not have any specific years mentioned, or is about issues still current.  More specific times can be searched using the keyword search and the time period (1970s or 1980s).
20th Century	Covering about 1900 CE through 1999 CE. Most useful for non-fiction books, such as biographies or histories.
21st Century	Covering about 2000 CE - 2999 CE. Most useful for non-fiction books, such as biographies, histories, or books about specific events, such as the Sept. 11, 2001 World Trade Center terrorist attack.
Future	By definition these are almost always science fiction, usually utopias or dystopias.
*BCE means Before the Common Era; CE means the Common Era.       Used as substitute for BC and AD.

Multi-Cultural:

Including only those materials that show two cultures interacting, whether that interaction is positive or negative.  Yo Yes is one example, as is The Oxboy.  Because the database is so specific, other types of multi-culturalism may be accessed by searching for books set outside of the U.S., or using a specific nationality or ethnicity for the protagonist.

Ethnicity/Nationality of the Protagonist or Lore :

Biased in favor of those ethnicities found frequently in the United States.  If a more specific ethnicity is desired, use the keyword search. Lore is given an ethnicity/nationality as is the protagonist.  Ethnicity/Nationality is also used to reflect the country of origin for folktales.

Afghani
African	Set in Africa with African protagonist. Use a keyword search for specific countries.
Arab	Separate because of numbers.
African-American	Separate from African because of overwhelming numbers.
Asian Pacific Islander	Includes Chinese, Filipino, Japanese, Korean, Okinawan (Uchinanchu), Taiwanese, Tibetan, Carolinian, Chamorro, Chuukese, Fijian, Guamanian, Hawaiian, Kosraean, Marshallese, Hawaiian, Niuean, Palauan, Papua New Guinean, Pohnpeian, Samoan, Tokelauan, Tongan, Yapese (Only some of which are represented in the database.)
Australian	Australian includes both Indigenous Australian as well as Australians of European or other descent. Do a keyword search for only Indigenous Australians.
Canadian	Separate because of great numbers. Usually Canadian award-winning books are set in Canada about Canadians.
Chinese	Separate because of great numbers.  Find Chinese-Americans by setting ethnicity to Chinese and location to United States.
Cuban	Separate because of numbers. Included with Hispanic.
Danes	Separate because of numbers.
Dutch	Separate because of numbers.

Gender:

Used to select the gender of the protagonist, without regard to the genre of the book.  Protagonist means the main character in fiction as well as non-fiction, such as biographies.

Languages Other Than English:

All of these books were written or translated into English. But sometimes books include a significant number of words from other languages in an effort to enhance the representation of the culture, to promote understanding of other languages and cultures, or to provide a comfort level for non-native speakers. Most often these books are in Spanish, but other languages sometimes appear.  The number of books of that language in the database appears in parentheses in the Language pull-down menu.

Publication Year:

May be used to limit the books to a year or span of years.

• There must be years in these two fields or an error will result.
• The default years should be left in place if the user wishes to search the entire database. However, the user may change the years in the box for a more narrow search.
• For a single year, type the same year in both the boxes, for example 1994 to 1994.

• For a span of years, type the beginning year and the ending year,  for example, 1994 to 1996.  This will list only books first published in the United States in 1994, 1995, and 1996.
• Remember that the publication year does not reflect the year the book won an award.

Keyword:

The Keyword search is for when highly specialized books are needed, such as books on Christmas or death. Words are automatically searched as a phrase. No Boolean ANDs or ORs will function in this field (Yet!). When searching, try to pluralize the nouns you are using:    search dogs rather than dog.

The keyword search can be used to find:

1. More specific locations not found in the setting drop-down menu, such as U.S. state names, U.S. regions, or countries. To find U.S. regions, use the following codes in the keyword search:

   New England (USE): Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont.
   Northeast (USNE): Above and New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virginia, and the District of Columbia
   Great Plains (USGP): Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Nebraska, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Dakota
   Midwest (USM): Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Ohio, Wisconsin
   Northwest (USNW): Alaska, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, Washington, Wyoming
   Southwest (USSW): Arizona, California, Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas, Utah
   Pacific (USP): Alaska, California, Hawaii, Oregon, Washington
   South (USSo): Arkansas, Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia
   Southeast (USSE): Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia

2. More specific ethnicities or nationalities not found in the drop-down menu, such as Aborigines
3. Key phrase in the title of a book to find out what awards it has won
4. Themes or subject matter of target stories
5. More specific subject areas in science, such as biology or physics

Author/Illustrator/Translator:

The author/illustrator/translator search feature offers a way to search for the people who created/shaped the book. This will search these three fields. The best way to search is to use either the first name or the last name. As DAWCL is a small database, that should yield good results. You may try, however, to type in the last name with a comma then a space and the first name.

Awards:

The awards given are the sources for the books in the database.  As time goes by, I hope to add more sources that recognize quality children's books. To search the entire database leave the pull-down menu to "Search All Awards." Selecting a specific award will limit the search to that award only. To obtain a list of books which have won an award select the award and sort by publication year.  You may want to find out more about these awards.
