Option 1

 * Article title: Rainbow Magic
 * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rainbow_Magic
 * Article Evaluation: C-Class
 * My Thoughts: For how popular this series is in Britain, it is shocking how much information is lacking in this Wikipedia article. There is no information on the various plots of these books, and what writing style they follow. Information on who these books cater to would be interesting to add as well. Additionally, it would be good to add the relevance of these books in modern day libraries.

Option 2

 * Article title: The Family Book
 * The Family Book
 * Article Evaluation: STUB
 * My Thoughts: The whole article focuses on the book's controversy, without going over its plot or summarizing the storyline. The book won an award in 2004, yet none of the reasons for achieving this award are highlighted, and only the negativity surrounding the book is told. Additionally, the places in which this book is banned is not outlined.

Option 3

 * Article title: Are You My Mother?
 * Are You My Mother?:
 * Article Evaluation: Start-class
 * My thoughts: There is a "Critical Reaction" section, and yet this section does not go over any negativity surrounding the book. Instead, this section repeats information that is already mentioned earlier in the article about the awards this book has won. The plot summary is pretty exhaustive, and it would be good to condense some of the plot points. A section on why the book is popular among children could also be interesting to add.

Option 4

 * Article title : I Am Jazz
 * I Am Jazz (book):
 * Article Evaluation: C-Class
 * My thoughts: The article focuses more on the controversy of this book and not the plot of the book. In fact, the key plot points and the life story of Jazz Jennings are not discussed at all. Since this book is based on the real-life experiences of Jazz Jennings, it would be important to include a section on her story, and maybe why this book was created.

Option 5 - not on wikipedia

 * Article title : This Story Is Not About a Kitten
 * by Randall de Sève, illustrated by Carson Ellis
 * My thoughts: I found this book on various best children's picture books blogs in 2022, showing the recent relevance of the book. There are some critiques available on Georgetown Library library base.

 * Article title : Shu Lin’s Grandpa
