Literature and Literacy
Literature and Literacy Roselmina Indrisano Boston University School of Education © 2008 Roselmina Indrisano 2 Introduction This annotated bibliography includes fifty books in the narrative genre that were selected for young readers. Each book or author is the recipient of one or more of the following awards: Caldecott and Newbery Awards, the American Library Association Notable Book Award, and the Coretta Scott King Award. The books are appropriate for readers in the first through sixth grades, with an approximately even distribution among the levels. Each entry in the bibliography includes: the complete reference; the level, as determined by The Fountas-Pinnell Leveled Book List K-8 (Heinneman, 2006) or the Fry Readability Formula (Fry, 1977); the awards; and three teaching ideas that are coded to selected standards in the Massachusetts English Language Arts Frameworks . A list of these standards is provided on page 52. In the few instances where the language and the structure of the text are more complex than the concepts, there is a note in the annotation to suggest that the book is suitable for reading aloud to younger learners. One of the teaching ideas for each book focuses on poetry. The number in parentheses that follows refers to the poetry anthology where the poem is published. The list of poetry anthologies is on pages 53-54. The author acknowledges, with gratitude, the assistance of Irene Papadopoulos Duros and Christine Leighton. Ms. Papadopoulos Duros reviewed the manuscript and computed the Fry readability formula for books that were not entered on the Fountas-Pinnell list. Ms. Leighton reviewed and summarized the literature on children’s reading interests that informed the selection of the books.

Picturebooks As Aesthetic Objects
Picturebooks as Aesthetic Objects Lawrence R. Sipe University of Pennsylvania ABSTRACT Picturebooks have an important place in every primary class- room, and teachers use them in various ways to help children develop skills in reading and writing. This article provides a brief introduction for teachers who want to explore other ways of studying picturebooks: ways that enhance children’s visual literacy. Picturebooks are unified artistic wholes in which text and pictures, covers and endpages, and the details of design work together to provide an aesthetically satisfying experience for children. Note: In this article, the spelling picturebook—as one word—is utilized intentionally in order to emphasize the unity of words and pictures that is the most important hallmark of this type of book. Literacy Teaching and Learning Volume 6, Number 1 pages 23–42 Literacy Teaching and Learning Volume 6, Number 1 Visiting the children’s section of a bookstore can be an experience of wonder and delight. Examining the many picturebooks, we find ourselves in the pres- ence of beautiful art of every imaginable medium and style and an endless vari- ety of stories. Contemporary picturebooks are now recognized as more than useful pedagogical tools or nursery entertainments: they are seen as unique combinations of literature and visual art, worthy of serious attention. This arti- cle outlines a model for picturebook criticism which focuses on the formal aspects and elements of the picturebook as an aesthetic object. It is intended for teachers and other educational practitioners who want an introduction to dis- cussing the visual aspects of picturebooks with children.
