Chapter 16: Children's Literature, Briefly

I found this chapter to be very interesting! Now a days as a teacher I feel like we have to be careful with everything we do. We have to make sure that the books we are presenting in class will not cause any problems with parents and students. As stated on page 207, teachers need to understand how to determine when a book is developmentally appropriate for their students. We need to be careful to not cause conflict with our parents as teachers; this could lead into many other issues and may even cost us our jobs.
