Sinopsi

Racially mixed children make up the fastest growing youth demographic in the US, and teachers of diverse populations need to be mindful in selecting literature that their students can identify with. This volume examines representative children?s literature to demonstrate the role they play as cultural artifacts that perpetuate, resist and negotiate racial stereotypes. Performing a content analysis of 90 books with mixed race characters, it places them within a historical context and critically analyzes what contemporary children?s fiction is saying about the experiences of multiracial students.
