Examining the Relationship Between Children's
A Spoonful of Silly: Examining the Relationship Between Children’s Nonsense Verse and Critical Literacy by Bonnie Tulloch B.A., (Hons), Simon Fraser University, 2013 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE AND POSTDOCTORAL STUDIES (Children’s Literature) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) December 2015 © Bonnie Tulloch, 2015 Abstract This thesis interrogates the common assumption that nonsense literature makes “no sense.” Building off research in the fields of English and Education that suggests the intellectual value of literary nonsense, this study explores the nonsense verse of several North American children’s poets to determine if and how their play with language disrupts the colonizing agenda of children’s literature. Adopting the critical lenses of Translation Theory and Postcolonial Theory in its discussion of Dr. Seuss’s On Beyond Zebra! (1955) and I Can Read with My Eyes Shut! (1978), along with selected poems from Shel Silverstein’s Where the Sidewalk Ends (1974), A Light in the Attic (1981), Runny Babbit (2005), Dennis Lee’s Alligator Pie (1974), Nicholas Knock and Other People (1974), and JonArno Lawson’s Black Stars in a White Night Sky (2006) and Down in the Bottom of the Bottom of the Box (2012), this thesis examines how the foreignizing effect of nonsense verse exposes the hidden adult presence within children’s literature, reminding children that childhood is essentially an adult concept—a subjective interpretation (i.e., translation) of their lived experiences. Analyzing the way these poets’ nonsense verse deviates from cultural norms and exposes the hidden adult presence within children’s literature, this research considers the way their poetry assumes a knowledgeable implied reader, one who is capable of critically engaging with the text.

Grade 2-3 List COMPLETE
The Pingry School Library Grades Lower School 2-3 Summer Reading List 2011 POSTCARDS TO THE LIBRARY June 2011 Dear Parents, The Pingry School Library has a tradition of providing summer reading book lists for our students. We strongly encourage them to read a selection of books from their list during the summer. Reading for pleasure during this time will continue the development of reading skills so that no ground is lost over the summer and will help to instill a love of reading that will last a lifetime. Attached is the suggested summer reading list for your child’s grade level. Reading levels vary within a grade, so there are both challenging selections and easy-to-read titles on the list. Students may choose to read any title from the list and may read as many books as their schedules allow. Students are not expected to read all the books on the list . The list is divided into fiction, nonfiction, poetry, folktales, and biographies. The titles are annotated to help in the selection process. You may wish to read other books by the same author that are not on the list. Hopefully, every child will find something to spark their interest. Please encourage the use of the reading log in the back of the booklet to record the titles of all the books read during the summer. We ask that every student send picture postcards to the library letting us know the titles of the books they are reading and how they are enjoying their vacation. See the next page for details on the Postcards to the Library Program.

Shel Silverstein
BIOGRAPHY: SHEL SILVERSTEIN CHILDREN’S AUTHOR, ONE-OF-A-KIND SONGWRITER Shel Silverstein is most famous, especially among younger generations, for the best-selling children’s books that he wrote and illustrated: The Giving Tree, Where the Sidewalk Ends, and A Light in the Attic. But Silverstein’s abundant creativity also stretched into songwriting, and he played a significant role in Outlaw- era music making. “Shel is the greatest lyricist there ever was,” said Country Music Hall of Fame member Bobby Bare, who frequently collaborated with Silverstein. “What he writes is so, so descriptive — so visual — that you couldn’t help but respond to it.” Born on September 25, 1930, in Chicago, Silverstein soaked up country music as a boy, but he felt the strongest tug toward art and words that were meant to be read. “When I was a kid — twelve, fourteen, around there — I would much rather have been a good baseball appeared on the landmark Wanted! The Outlaws album player or a hit with the girls,” he recalled. “But I couldn’t in 1976. Waylon Jennings released “The Taker” play ball. I couldn’t dance. Luckily, the girls didn’t want (co-written with Kris Kristofferson) in 1971. Silverstein me; not much I could do about that. So, I started to also scored two hits on the 1972 pop chart with Dr. Hook draw and to write.” & the Medicine Show’s “Cover of the Rolling Stone” and “Sylvia’s Mother.” Drafted into the U.S. Army in 1953, Silverstein became the staff cartoonist for the Pacific edition of Stars and The songwriter formed an enduring partnership with Stripes, the military newspaper.
