About Us

Our Beginnings

Meet Our Staff

We are:

• educators, authors, business owners, moms and dads.
• avid readers who want our children to enjoy reading.
• parents who want to know what our children are reading.
• concerned adults who want to help parents and educators be knowledgeable about issues children will face in their reading.

We are a resource for parents, teachers and educators so they can determine if a book may be appropriate for a particular child to read.

We are not:

• an attempt to censor books.
• an attempt to remove books from libraries.
• an attempt to recommend or not recommend books.

Each Child is Unique

• Has a child experienced a recent divorce in the family?
• Has a child experienced a death in his family?
• Has a child been the victim of abuse?
• Has a child experienced a traumatic accident?

These and many other issues are factors to consider in choosing a book that may or may not be right for a child at the moment. At Facts on Fiction, we recognize that each child has special needs.

• Each child is different. What may scare one child may not faze another.
• Each child is a member of a family with different values.
• Each child will not mature equally emotionally and mentally at the same age.
