ENGL 266 - Literature for Children and Youth

Students are introduced to literature written for children and youth through a historical survey of classical and contemporary works in a variety of genres and cultures, including poems, fiction, plays, novels and novel series. This survey includes various styles of children s/youth literature (e.g., nursery rhymes, folktales, picture books, fairytales, adventure, chapter books, graphic novels), as well as specific socio-historical aspects and literary techniques, including developmental reading, literary use of language, evolution of narrative, visual storytelling, and use of morality. Critical skills of academic reading, analysis and writing, and literary theory associated with children/youth literature, will be emphasized.
