Hi All,
I'm looking forward to sharing some additional YA novels (and some non-fiction) related to a serious topic--the Middle East and war, as well as other postmodern picture books and graphic novels tomorrow night. I am glad you are reading against the grain with the Soto novel, deconstructing some of its stereotypical elements. This is the essence of critical literacy and the problems you are noticing permeate some (not all) of this genre.
We'll also look at some specific response strategies you may find useful in working with literature and non-fiction texts.
Well, gotta go....more later.
Tom
