Description\| Features\| New-To-Edition\| TOC\| E-Content
This market-leading text covers the two major topical areas of children's literature�the various genres (picture books, folklore, etc.) and the use of literature in the classroom. Deliberately concise, LITERATURE AND THE CHILD, 7th Edition, offers succinct yet beautifully written and illustrated discussions that reflect the tone and feel of children's books. Its brevity also allows students time to read the actual children's books in full. A stunning design includes a specially commissioned cover and interior illustrations by James Ransome, a notable children's book illustrator and artist. Featuring discussions of the latest works of children's literature, the text includes coverage of the growing importance of young adult literature as well as expanded emphasis on upper-level children's literature and adolescent literature. The authors pay careful attention to diversity and equip students with practical, research-based teaching ideas. Extensive booklists equip students with excellent, ongoing resources as well as teaching ideas that can be applied to their own classroom. In addition, in-depth video interviews of leading authors and illustrators on the text website give students direct insight into the creativity behind the stories.
