Young Adult Literature in the Classroom


Young Adult Literature is one of the newest genre in the literary world. It has a great following by teachers, librarians and young adults. It is so popular that all teachers should be looking at what is and how do I use it in my classroom.

Young Adult Literature in the Classroom edited by Joan Elliott and Mary Dupuis is a book that I highly recommend for all teachers of middle and high schools. Librarians should read it, too. This book has great ideas for teachers and librarians both. It is a way to keep young people reading when reading isn't always "cool".

Teachers will find the information vital to developing students who enjoy reading and becoming lifelong readers. Great book.
