2010 Popular Paperbacks for Young Adults
2010 Popular Paperbacks for Young Adults The list of 88 titles, drawn from 165 official nominations, is presented annually at the ALA Midwinter Meeting. This year’s PPYA committee produced four lists of titles arranged by the following topics: Bodies: They come in all shapes, sizes, and abilities...love it or hate it, you only have one body. Change Your World: You say you want a revolution? Teens, take the world into your hands with books about politics, environmentalism and activism. The revolution starts now Hard Knock Life: Sometimes the odds are stacked against you. What do you do when life knocks you down? Twists on the Tale: The times may change, but the tales remain eternal. Classic literature and folktales are given a makeover in these retellings. "Teen readers and the librarians who serve them are a diverse group, but they are all looking for a good book,” said Elizabeth Saxton, committee chair. “Hopefully our lists this year will help teens realize that life can be hard and everybody has issues, but if you are willing to make a difference there is a good chance for a happily ever after” Members of the Popular Paperbacks for Young Adults Committee are: Elizabeth Saxton, Chair , Cleveland (Ohio) Public Library; Teresa Allen, Colorado State Library, Denver; Kay Bowes, Brandywine Hundred Library, Wilmington, De.; Karen Brooks-Reese, Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh, Pa.; Valerie Davis, Campbell County Public Library, Newport, Ky.; Franklin Escobedo, Oceanside (Calif.)

It Reveals Who I Really Am”: New Metaphors, Symbols, and Motifs in Representations of Autism Spectrum Disorders in Popular Culture
“IT REVEALS WHO I REALLY AM”: NEW METAPHORS, SYMBOLS, AND MOTIFS IN REPRESENTATIONS OF AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDERS IN POPULAR CULTURE By Summer Joy O’Neal A Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English Middle Tennessee State University 2013 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Angela Hague, Chair Dr. David Lavery Dr. Robert Petersen Copyright © 2013 Summer Joy O’Neal ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS There simply is not enough thanks to thank my family, my faithful parents, T. Brian and Pamela O’Neal, and my understanding sisters, Auburn and Taffeta, for their lifelong support; without their love, belief in my strengths, patience with my struggles, and encouragement, I would not be in this position today. I am forever grateful to my wonderful director, Dr. Angela Hague, whose commitment to this project went above and beyond what I deserved to expect. To the rest of my committee, Dr. David Lavery and Dr. Robert Petersen, for their seasoned advice and willingness to participate, I am also indebted. Beyond these, I would like to recognize some “unofficial” members of my committee, including Dr. Elyce Helford, Dr. Alicia Broderick, Ari Ne’eman, Chris Foss, and Melanie Yergau, who graciously offered me necessary guidance and insightful advice for this project, particularly in the field of Disability Studies. Yet most of all, Ephesians 3.20-21. iii ABSTRACT Autism has been sensationalized by the media because of the disorder’s purported prevalence: Diagnoses of this condition that was traditionally considered to be quite rare have radically increased in recent years, and an analogous fascination with autism has emerged in the field of popular culture.
