Course Catalog Description:
This course provides an overview of the traditions of children's and young adult literature. The course will address the following questions among others: What is "children's literature"? What are some of its persistent themes and stylistic traits? In what ways may we say it has changed over time? What distinguishes children's literature, from, say, "grown-up" literature? Our readings will include classic and contemporary works with a focus on diversity regarding the authors, themes, and readership. In addition to becoming familiar with this body of knowledge, we will be developing critical reading skills within a "literary" context. We will also look into how, when, and where literature (specifically children's and young adult literature) and our everyday lives intersect, impact, and interact with each other.
