Why just for parents?
Because teachers are usually very, very familiar with the points I've made in Choosing Books for Children, though they may not agree with every one. Most of the content was inspired by questions parents did or did not ask me over my 35 years of elementary school teaching. I suppose that content also applies to people giving books to children as gifts, but using that title would take up a lot of space on the menu, same with using parents and guardians etc.
In the New Reader's Books available, there are good resources for teachers and older children as well as parents, hence the name. It's confusing, though, because it means New (Readers's Books) Available, not (New Reader's) Books Available! Oh, well.
