Welcome to the wonderful world of children’s literature! This is a high school elective course (no prerequisites required!) In this course, we will take a walk down memory lane as we re-read and analyze the books from our own childhoods. Students will strengthen their literary analysis skills as well as evaluate the ways in which childhood literature shapes foundational belief systems for children and families. From learning to share to welcoming new siblings to tackling anxiety, children’s books are often used when adults don’t quite have the words themselves. These powerful tools are works of art, and students will complete the course by writing and printing their own children’s book!
