Sensitive Issues An Annotated Guide to Childrens Literature K-6
Because children's literature explores serious issues using situations and language young students can readily understand, the authors of Sensitive Issues have selected current fiction and nonfiction elementary-level titles that can also be developed into units of study. They describe popular high-quality literature and stimulating activities to help young people deal with specific and important issues in their lives: divorce, substance abuse, death and dying, nontraditional home environments, child abuse, prejudice and cultural differences, moving, and disabilities.
