  • 2​Nd​- Into 3​Rd​- Grade Summer Reading List
    nd rd 2 -​ into 3 -​ Grade Summer Reading List ​ ​ *============================* Liz Perry, Librarian for Stacey Hubbard, 2020 Listed below are books to read to your children and books for your children—if they are ​ ready—to read on their own. A fine guide to reading comfort is a thoughtful evaluation of your child’s response to what sits in his or her lap: Is he or she mastering most of the words on the page? If there is frustration, consider an easier read. For your own read-aloud interest—and to connect with stories you might have encountered long ​ ago—books below are separated into categories contemporary and classic. While books published more than 50 years ago may have old-fashioned views, they represent takes on cultural views and rituals of family life that become more varied (politically correct) in later works of fiction. It is worth noting that an “adventure” a hundred years ago could dwell in the simplest of activities: finding stray buttons while dusting or following a butterfly across a meadow. What is worthy of the term “adventure” in juvenile literature today? Parent read-alouds are still rewarding social exchanges even with proficient readers, and conversation around stories can give revealing glimpses into how your child experiences and interprets the world. I Can-Read/Ready-to-Read Series While there are many worthy reads in this genre featuring books children will want (and perhaps need) to read multiple times, choices below tend toward more traditional illustration and a gentler narrative voice. As you make your selections, try to avoid cartoon-like formats that sometimes over-simplify the beauty of nature or caricature the human form.

But the day that Hen Wen vanished, Taran was led into an enchanting and perilous world. With his band of followers, he confronted the Horned King and his terrible Cauldron-Born. These were the forces of evil, and only Hen Wen knew the secret of keeping the kingdom of Prydain safe from them. But who would find her first? Peter Nimble (Series) By Jonathan Auxier J/Fic/Auxier One fateful afternoon, Peter steals a box from a mysterious traveling haberdasher—a box that contains three pairs of magical eyes. When he tries the first pair, he is instantly transported to a hidden island. Along with his loyal sidekick—a knight who has been turned into an unfortunate combination of horse and cat—and the magic eyes, he embarks on an unforgettable adventure to discover his true destiny.

  • Writing 100: Fairy Tales and Feminism Spring
    Writing 100: Fairy Tales and Feminism Spring 2011 Professor Lisa Fischler Office: Comenius 104 Email: [email protected] Office Ph.: 610-861-1418 Class: T, Th 3b (10:20-11:30 am) PPHAC 235 Office Hours: Tues. and Thurs. 11:30 am-1 pm and other times by appointment. Course Description Even though they depict a supernatural world of enchantment, fairy tales have functioned for centuries to pass on norms, values, and gender roles. This course will explore elements of the fairy tale genre--such as narrative structure, myths, cultural symbols, gender, sexuality, constructions of class, family, and ethnicity--and uses to which fairy tales have been put. Special attention will be given to the long-lost women narrators of fairy tales who motivated the Brothers Grimm and what these tales reveal about women’s and men’s lives in historical, social, and contemporary context. Goals and Objectives The general goals and objectives for this course are outlined in the Writing 100 Guidelines, but the following are the more particular course objectives for this section of Writing 100. By the end of the semester, you should be able to: A) Understand writing as a way of thinking, as a process that constructs knowledge, and as a form with different styles, formats, and audiences. B) Recognize a variety of writing styles; use interpretative, evaluative, and creative genres well, and coherently employ grammar, language, style, citations, tone, and theme. C) Efficiently use information technology for writing and research, critically evaluate credible sources, analyze the value of diverse resources, and cohesively present research results.

    Fairy Tales Reimagined (Middle Grade fiction) E.D. Baker - “The Frog Princess” ~ book Tales of the Frog Princess #1 (books) Princess Emeralda a.k.a. Emma isn't exactly an ideal princess. Her laugh is more like a donkey's bray than tinkling bells, she trips over her own feet and she does not like Prince Jorge, whom her mother hopes she will marry. But if Emma ever thought to escape her troubles, she never expected it to happen by turning into a frog! When convinced to kiss a frog so he might return to being a prince, somehow the spell is reversed and Emma turns into a frog herself! Thus begins their adventure - a quest to return to human form. Fascinating and hilarious characters ranging from a self-conscious but friendly bat to a surprisingly loyal snake and a wise green witch confirm that readers won't soon forget this madcap story.

When a terrorizing giant goes on a rampage through the town, it's up to the Sisters Grimm to stop him and to solve the mystery of who set the giant loose in the first place. Was it Mayor Charming, formerly Prince Charming, who desperately wants his kingdom back? The Three Not-So-Little Pigs, the shifty town cops?

Available at: http://digitalcommons.wayne.edu/narrative/vol1/iss2/4 article Donald Haase “We Are What We Are Supposed to Be” The Brothers Grimm as Fictional Representations n 1985, in a catalog of contemporary art inspired by the Brothers Grimm and their tales, W. P. Fahrenberg presented the unpublished manuscript of a deceased Grimm scholar identified only by the initial L. In that rare piece of research, L. Imakes an astounding claim: You know the Brothers Grimm as men who brightened your childhood, as pio- neers of dream, as men of political integrity, as outstanding Germanists, as highly celebrated “great German intellects.” All this is true. And yet I would like to add to these celebratory assessments one more theory that, while afffirming these declarations, at the same time also makes them pale in comparison. Brace yourself: The Brothers Grimm were extraterrestrials whose explicit goal and mission were to subjugate humanity and thus to prepare it for that day in the future when the world as we know it will be turned topsy-turvy.1 It should be clear to readers of that catalog, Der Grimm auf Märchen2—as it should be to readers of this article—that L.
