Subject: [NIFL-FAMILY:1509] Low Literacy Parenting Books


We have grant money to develop a library of children's books on tape and
parenting books for a local homeless shelter.

I am looking for a list of parenting books suitable for lower literacy
levels -- does anyone have or know of such a resource?  Even individual
title suggestions would help.  I have looked for hours on the Internet to no
avail.

Thank you!
