Abstract: This paper focuses on novels addressed to that category of older teenagers called “young adults”, a particularly successful category that is traditionally regarded as a subpart of children’s literature and yet terminologically insists on overriding the adult/child divide by blurring the frontier between adulthood and childhood and focusing on the transition from one state to the other. In Britain, YA fiction has developed extensively in the last four decades and I wish to concentrate on what this literary emergence and evolution has entailed since the beginning of the 21st century, especially from the point of view of genre and narrative mode. I will examine the cases of recognized—although sometimes controversial—authors, arguing that although British YA fiction is deeply indebted to and anchored in the pioneering American tradition, which proclaimed the end of the Romantic child as well as that of the compulsory happy ending of the children’s book, there seems to be a recent trend which consists in alleviating the roughness, the straightforwardness of realism thanks to elements or touches of fantasy.

  • Year 5 Reading Leaflet
    Research has shown that children who read regularly, and are frequently read to, will make significantly more progress than those who do not. We want all of our children to love reading and to read for pleasure. Reading with your child for as little as 10 minutes every day can make an enormous difference and, is there anything nicer than snuggling up with your child to enjoy a great story? Throughout the year we will be planning a range of exciting activities to promote reading. We are also very pleased to announce that we will have two Reading Champions this year! Our link with the poet Paul Cookson will continue and he will again be a regular feature in school. Alongside Paul as Reading Champion this year, we have Tom Palmer who will also be launching our World Cup topic in the summer. We are also pleased to have the fantastic Simon Bartram visiting Key stage 1 this November. In this booklet you will find lots of information and tip tips to help you support your child with their reading. We have included some suggestions of our favourite books from Year 5 over the next few pages and there are some fantastic reads on the list! So, when you can find a minute, pick one and enjoy it with them. Enjoy the information enclosed and thank you for your continued support. Happy reading Mr Hall Assistant Head/English Lead This year we have begun a project to increase our focus in supporting and developing children’s speaking and listening skills.

  • Études at Play : Narrative Identity in Adolescents with Chronic Illness
    Études at play: Narrative Identity in Adolescents with Chronic Illness in Contemporary Young Adult Literature Volume 1 Exegesis Pamela Jane Harvey Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Communication (246AA) November 2018 Faculty of Arts & Design, University of Canberra - i - Abstract Storytelling gives voice to people’s experiences, assisting them in making meaning of their lives and their place in it. It is also integral to a person’s narrative identity and the sense of self created through these stories. Philosopher Paul Ricoeur asserts that narrative identity is not present at a story’s beginning but born in the telling, creating a future for the narrator. For some, the effects of ongoing illness complicate narrative identity and storytelling becomes an avenue to express what it is to live with the effects of disease and how it shapes self. The resultant stories are known as illness narratives. Illness narratives form a burgeoning category of autobiography but published texts are limited to mostly adult storytellers. This thesis examines contemporary young adult fictional illness narratives (‘illness fictions’) as a cohort of books that act as transformative texts in the interpretation and understanding of the illness experience. Sociologist Arthur Frank’s illness narrative typology, based on Paul Ricoeur’s idea of narrative identity and consisting of three categories, provides a lens through which to interrogate these texts and their narrative type. While Frank’s typology is a useful initial tool, its application to stories of ill adolescents is restrictive. This thesis extends the illness narrative typology to five categories in order to create a more nuanced framework for the investigation and creation of illness.
