This timely new book provides a historically-informed analysis of how recent popular and literary fiction (including The Tales of Beedle the Bard, the Twilight series and The Fault in Our Stars) for teens responds to the perceived 'literacy crisis' in teen culture. This project explores commonalities between the texts, asking: what defines YA fiction today? Why does it matter? And is there really a crisis in teen reading? The project delves deeply into the literature that teens are reading as well as the literature about their reading government reports, educational theory, and cognitive science in order to examine the 'literacy crisis' as it applies to teen readers today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Elisabeth Rose Gruner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Palgrave MacMillan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/04\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.88lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781137539236\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eElisabeth Rose Gruner\u003c\/b\u003e teaches English at the University of Richmond, USA, where she has served as Director of the First-Year Seminar Program and Academic Advising Resource Center as well as Associate Dean of Arts \u0026amp; Sciences.
