AFRICAN AND AFRICAN AMERICAN CHILDRENS AND ADOL...

The essays in this collection discuss multicultural issues in children's and adolescent
literature  focusing particularly on African and African American cultures. They challenge our
understanding of what  in an age of globalization  multicultural texts really are. Cumulatively
these essays illustrate multicultural literature's power to educate young readers about the
numerous and varied perspectives on their own cultures and roles in society  as well as those
of other cultures. The scholarship presented here makes it clear that not only should
multicultural literature be integrated within the school curriculum  but that it can be
examined to reveal subtle cultural nuances that show how cultures  customs  and people may be
at once similar and different.
