  • Exploring Illustrations of Caldecott Award Books to Increase Vocabulary Acquisition
    A Picture’s Worth a Thousand Words: Exploring Illustrations in Caldecott Award Books to Increase Vocabulary Acquisition Klair McGlynn Shawmont Elementary School Overview Rationale Objectives Strategies Classroom Activities Annotated Bibliography/Resources Appendix/Content Standards Overview "What is the use of a book," thought Alice "without pictures or conversation?" ~from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland The objective of the curriculum unit, A Picture’s Worth a Thousand Words: Exploring Illustrations in Caldecott Award books to Increase Vocabulary Acquisition, is to examine how the award winning illustrations capture the emotional appeal and responses of both young and old viewers and to provide a plethora of learning opportunities to build vocabulary in a kindergarten classroom. It will provide an introduction to Children‟s Literature through picture books and their illustrations with implications for educators to utilize illustrations to teach new words. After presenting a brief history and criteria for selection of this prestigious distinction, this unit will focus on the merits of using the Caldecott Award books to teach vocabulary development. Educators should recognize the elements of Caldecott books that appeal to children, which include their illustrations, characters, and genres. These books can be used to enhance student learning in a variety of ways. The books can be readily integrated with different subjects, related to important character principles, and used as a source of inspiration. Understanding the appeal and potential uses of Caldecott books can help teachers to value these books as vital resources for their classrooms. This unit is intended for kindergarten students in a self-contained classroom. It should be completed after the second marking period when students have developed basic concepts of print and can engage in and experiment in reading and writing.

  • A Brief History of Children's Storybooks
    THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE SCHOOL OF VISUAL ARTS AN ORIGINAL STORY WITH RELIEF PRINT ILLUSTRATIONS MARILYN TURNER MCPHERON Fall 2010 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a baccalaureate degree in Art with honors in Art Reviewed and approved* by the following: Robin Gibson Associate Professor of Art Thesis Supervisor Jerrold Maddox Professor of Art Honors Adviser *Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College ABSTRACT Children’s literature, in the form of picture and storybooks, introduce a child to one of the most important tools needed to succeed in life: the ability to read. With the availability of affordable books in the 18th century, due to the introduction of new mechanization, individuals had the ability to improve their lives and widen their worlds. In the 19th century, writers of fiction began to specialize in literature for children. In the 20th century, books for children, with beautiful, colorful illustrations, became a common gift for children. The relatively rapid progression from moralistic small pamphlets on cheap paper with crude woodcuts to the world of Berenstain Bears, colorful Golden Books, and the tongue-twisters of Dr. Seuss is an intriguing social change. The story of how a storybook moves from an idea to the bookstore shelf is equally fascinating. Combining the history of children’s literature with how a storybook is created inspired me to write and illustrate my own children’s book, ―OH NO, MORE SNOW!‖ i ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The Schreyer Honors College,

Explore the ocean of possibilities ahead of you and dive deep into every page. Be prepared, as you may encounter unexpected waves of emotion. Imagination is your life vest. Use it. Enjoy it. Embrace it. Wild things await you. Let the ride begin. THE WILD NATURE OF THE PICTUREBOOK Some things cannot be caged into one definite form or definition. Such is the case of the picturebook, this wild thing. If you look at it as two separate words, the picture book can be seen as an illustrated book for children or a story book with pictures or a book where pictures decorate, accompany or highlight certain parts of the text. But why should the text be more important than the pictures? When words and images need each other to make meaning, then something wild happens: a picturebook is born, as a compound word and a complex format.

Fast-talking agents and demanding talent representatives exist everywhere, of course, but only in the US do you have that kind of standardised process that links actors, directors and writers to scripts doing the rounds. Now, with US channels keener than ever to work with international partners on high-end drama series, the American agent is branching out from Los Angeles and New York City. Not only that, they see 4 the skill set their regular days jobs have provided – negotiation tactics, rights ownership knowledge, contracting and, crucially, the gift of the gab – as proof that they can sell these packages overseas. In our lead feature on new BBC-AMC spy thriller The Night Manager, William Morris Endeavor’s head of global television, Chris Rice, explains how the famous LA agency became player in international distribution.

Cassidy, a documentary film producer who will forever be plagued by a Partridge family pop star. This project on Little Golden Books came to fruition under the guidance of Dr. John Cech, to whom I am deeply grateful. Moreover, I want to thank my dissertation committee—Dr. Kenneth Kidd, Dr. Marsha Bryant, and Dr. Linda Lamme—for providing excellent insight, feedback, and encouragement throughout this process. They have all challenged and shaped me as a writer and scholar. For her editorial eye, I would also like to thank Miriam Downey, who read every word of this dissertation multiple times. This project would not have been possible without two specific Little Golden Book collectors, Steve Santi and Holly Everson, who provided me with access to their collections and answered my numerous questions. Diane Muldrow, the current editor of the Little Golden Books at Random House, graciously filed in any information gaps. The generous Children’s Literature Association’s Hannah Beiter Graduate Student Scholarship and the University of Florida’s O. Ruth McQuown Supplemental Scholarship for Graduate Women provided me with the funds to travel across the country, dig through archives, and present at conferences.

Abstract Abstract The issues of gender roles, gender development and gender equality have been subject to research for several decades. Many studies have shown that traditional gender roles still prevail, if to a lesser extent than in past decades. Also indices of gender equality still point to gaps in the economic and political participation of female and male persons.
