Global Children's Literature in the College Classroom explores the
importance of children's literature as a pedagogical resource in
any college course. It can be used to introduce a complex topic,
give students a glimpse into a specific culture, or expand the way
students think about education and teaching. Global children's
literature is particularly useful in language classrooms, education
programs, and classes that discuss globalism and colonialism. This
book includes fifteen essays (representing fifteen countries and
eight languages) divided into four sections. The first section of
essays, "Across the University," looks at children's literature in
non-traditional settings including British literature and
multicultural studies, which considers what children's literature
specifically brings to these courses. The second section, "Borders
and Crossings," examines how children's literature defines or
defies political and cultural separations. The third section,
"Childhood Studies and Education," considers the importance of
global children's literature in education classrooms as a way of
promoting diversity and inclusion. The fourth section, "Non-English
Texts and Texts in Translation," focuses on the use of children's
literature to teach language and folklore traditions in France,
Russia, and Italy. The essay that closes this section discusses
using children's literature to teach translation skills at the
University of Taipei.
