520    Thousands of books for teens are published every year, but
       until now no general reference has existed. Anita Silvey"s
       book is the one everyone has been waiting for. Parents 
       will see what their teenagers are actually reading and be 
       able to lead them to the best of an overwhelming bunch. 
       Teachers will spot excellent additions to summer reading 
       lists. Booksellers will have a host of suggestions in 
       every genre to offer their customers. Librarians can round
       out collections, teens can choose their own books, and 
       both teen and mother-daughter book groups can make the 
       best selections. 500 Great Books for Teens is divided into
       twenty-one sections, including adventure and survival, 
       horror, graphic novels, humor, mystery, and poetry, each 
       with additional reading lists. Silvey"s cogent 
       descriptions of the plot and essential style of each book 
       make it exceptionally easy for anyone to decide whether a 
       book will appeal to a specific teen reader. The books are 
       also grouped by geographic area and time period because 
       teachers often assign book reports this way. Sixty of the 
       best audio books are also listed.
