For my Building Block search, I took the query, “What reading books are recommended for Kindergarten students when beginning school?”  This search can be narrowed down to s1:  reading s2:  books  s3:  kindergarten.  I narrowed the search by Education Level:  kindergarten as well.  I wish to find examples of books that I could use in a school library for kindergarten children.
One of my results is "March of the Penguins:  Building Knowledge  in a Kindergarten Classroom."  While this is an article describing how to teach the same principles of reading strategies with read-alouds and vocabulary building.  For a young audience, the visuals along with the words created a tremendous learning tool.  The author of the article, Lauren Fingeret, also give information on lessons and tables indicating tested results of those skills. 
While this article does not discuss a book, it is quite useful in knowing that I can look for the film and give teachers the lesson plan information.  Since Reading strategies go beyond books, I find this a very useful and unexpected search result.
