Children's Literature
This course defines the nature and function of children's literature by locating an examination of its history, genres, trends, and controversies in both an understanding of children's cognitive and imaginative response to reading and an exploration of culturally constructed images of and for children. The course offers methodologies for critical reading of a variety of children's texts and for selecting literature appropriate for a number of child-oriented programs. The course offers opportunities for observation and participation in story hours and other literature-based activities in locations such as child-care facilities and public libraries.
