Product Description
Book Description
Young Adult Literature: Exploration, Evaluation, and Appreciation is an exciting new book developed to identify for teachers how to better connect adolescents with good literature. Comprehensive enough to ensure that teachers understand today’s adolescents and the literature that will engage them, yet slim enough to ensure readers have the opportunity to read the books themselves, this book will help teachers provide a rich educational experience for adolescents throughout the middle and secondary curriculum while nourishing their love of reading. This book addresses adolescent culture and the types of literature that engage adolescents, including horror, graphic novels, comic books, and many forms of media, more thoroughly and insightfully than any other on the market. Middle and Secondary Inservice Teachers and Reading Specialists.

This review is from: Young Adult Literature: Exploration, Evaluation, and Appreciation (Paperback)
Young Adult Literature is a great resource to have on hand for recommendations of YA lit books from each genre. Each chapter includes a multitude of texts that would be appropriate for YA readers and resources for how to evaluate each genre and the reasons for including each genre in the curriculum.
