NIFL-ESL Teachers!!!!
Wouldn't today's American literature for children and young
adults be a great source for students of ESL for teaching literature.
And, excerpts from these can be found in public school literature books
also.
I'm thinking of books by Tomie de Paola, Chris van Allsburg,
Louis Sachar, Eve Bunting, and many more. There are picture books and
beginning chapter books. I think some todays best art is found in
today's childrens books. And, some are great for reading aloud.
There's the Newbery and Caldecott winners and each state has
a winner. For example, each year Texas Library Association presents the
Bluebonnet book award that is selected from 20 books read and voted by
3-6 graders.
