Children's literature can be a powerful way to encourage and
empower EFL students but is less commonly used in the classroom
than adult literature. This text provides a comprehensive
introduction to children's and young adult literature in EFL
teaching. It demonstrates the complexity of children's literature
and how it can encourage an active community of second language
readers: with multilayered picturebooks, fairy tales, graphic
novels and radical young adult fiction. It examines the
opportunities of children's literature in EFL teacher education,
including: the intertexuality of children's literature as a
gate-opener for canonised adult literature; the rich patterning of
children's literature supporting Creative Writing; the potential of
interactive drama projects. Close readings of texts at the centre
of contemporary literary scholarship, yet largely unknown in the
EFL world, provide an invaluable guide for teacher educators and
student teachers, including works by David Almond, Anthony Browne,
Philip Pullman and J.K.Rowling. Introducing a range of genres and
their significance for EFL teaching, this study makes an important
new approach accessible for EFL teachers, student teachers and
teacher educators.
