PUB DATE Apr 72 NOTE 147p. AVAILABLE FROMNational Council of Teachers of English, 1111 Kenyon Road, Urbana, Ill. 61801 (Stock No. 33813, $1.75 non-member, $1.65 member) JOURNAL CIT Arizona English Bulletin; v14 n3 Apr 1972 EDRS PRICE MF-$0.65 HC-$6.58 DESCRIPTORS *Adolescents; *English; English Curriculum; English Programs; Fiction; *Literature; *Reading Interests; Reading Material Selection; *Secondary Education; Teaching; Teenagers ABSTRACT This issue of the Arizona English Bulletin contains articles discussing literature that adolescents read and literature that they might be encouragedto read. Thus there are discussions both of literature specifically written for adolescents and the literature adolescents choose to read. The term adolescent is understood to include young people in grades five or six through ten or eleven. The articles are written by high school, college, and university teachers and discuss adolescent literature in general (e.g., Geraldine E. LaRoque's "A Bright and Promising Future for Adolescent Literature"), particular types of this literature (e.g., Nicholas J. Karolides' "Focus on Black Adolescents"), and particular books, (e.g., Beverly Haley's "'The Pigman'- -Use It1"). Also included is an extensive list of current books and articles on adolescent literature, adolescents' reading interests, and how these books relate to the teaching of English..The bibliography is divided into (1) general bibliographies,(2) histories and criticism of adolescent literature, CO dime novels, (4) adolescent literature before 1940, (5) reading interest studies, (6) modern adolescent literature, (7) adolescent books in the schools, and (8) comments about young people's reading.

    Word & World Volume 24, Number 3 Summer 2004 Reading Acts 16:6–40 on the Edges of the Navajo Reservation1 JEFFREY L. STALEY THE GIRL ON THE BORDERLANDS t is a hot July afternoon on the Navajo Reservation in northern Arizona, the kind of day that flakes off your skin like a fine alkaline dust. My three brothers and two sisters, along with our father and his wife, have met at Immanuel Mission for a family reunion. It is the first time all of us have been together since our mother’s death in 1984. Now it is eleven years later. At this precise moment I am standing beside my oldest brother, Rob, at the grave of Sarah Tsosie, a Navajo girl with whom we grew up. Thirty years ago we were both in love with Sarah. At the age of fourteen, Rob’s had been an open, recip- rocated affection. I ought to know. I used to follow Rob and Sarah around after dark to watch them kiss behind the cinder block dormitory. My love, on the other hand, was that sweet, secret, unrequited type commonly found in the hearts of jeal- ous, pesky little twelve-year-old brothers. The intervening thirty years have taken us both far away from Sarah and the reservation where we spent our childhood. But now we are side by side at Sarah’s hard-packed adobe grave, trying to say goodbye to someone—something—that was once simple, passionate, and young; full of grace and beauty. 1An earlier version of this essay appeared as “Changing Woman: Postcolonial Reflections on Acts16.6–40,” Journal for the Study of the New Testament 73 (1999) 113–135.
