Before you create an article, make sure you understand what kind of articles are accepted here. Remember: Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and while many topics are encyclopedic, some things are not.

Your instructor or professor may wish to set up a course page, if your class doesn't already have one. It is highly recommended that you place this text:  on the talk page of any articles you are working on as part of your Wikipedia-related course assignment. This will let other editors know this article is a subject of an educational assignment and aid your communication with them.

We hope you like it here and encourage you to stay even after your assignment is finished! Stuartyeates (talk) 00:57, 9 November 2014 (UTC)

The Rooster Crows
Hey- quick question: Did you quote any of the reviews in the reception section? If you do, then you need to use quotes. It kind of seems like you did, so I was slightly confused by that. You also need to be careful of tone since some parts of the article come across as a personal point of view. Phrases like "enjoyable pictures", "even more interesting", and "so much detail" can come across as a personal opinion, so you need to be careful of this since stuff like this can cause an article to be tagged as promotional even if it's unintended.

I'd also move this portion to the lead: "Stated by Pilgrim J. the P.s wrote patriotic books known collectively as This Is America series. An American ABC (1941) and The Rooster Crows: A Book of American Rhymes and Jingles (1945) were included in this series." This isn't a critical review per se, so this is a little confusing to read in a section that's typically considered to be reserved for reviews of the work. Also, make sure that you try to use the cite tool instead of doing raw html links, since this will mark the link as viewed. This way if the link does go dead for whatever reason then there will be something to show that it was verified. I know that this helped save some film reviews after the website/company went down. In this case it's not that I think that Horn Book will go under- it's more that they tend to archive their reviews after a certain point in time and this will help keep people from removing the link later on down the line. I'll change this for you, but I wanted to give you a head's up about raw html links.

Other than that you've done a good job in tracking down sources for this! Books from the pre-Internet era will frequently have sources that aren't available on the Internet, so this must have taken some pretty good sleuthing on your part! Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)  10:05, 31 May 2015 (UTC)
