  • 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.

  • Wonder Read English
    Wonder Read Reading Begins at Home t is never too soon to introduce your child to books. As parents, you are a major influence in I helping your child learn to love books and to develop the habit of reading. The UES Gonda Family library staff invites you to visit the library to check out books to share with your child and to ask us how we can help you find books that both you and your child will enjoy. Here are some basic points to keep in mind when selecting books and sharing literature with your child. Babies and Pre-Nursery School: • Select books that stimulate your child’s sense of sight. Books should be colorful, clear and uncluttered. • Young children respond to the sound of language. Look for books with rhythm, exciting sounds and repetition, such as Mother Goose. • Wordless picture books encourage children to participate with the parent to create their own stories. • Select board or cloth books which children can enjoy on their own. Children Ages 3 to 5: • Keep books handy everywhere throughout the house and in the car. Include books with toys so that children are just as likely to pick up a book as they are to pick up a toy. • Young children enjoy hearing the same book read over and over. • Young children enjoy books with combinations of rhythm, repetition and familiar objects. Mother Goose and simple folk tales are ideal for this age. • Look for books with simple sentences, action, humor and a clear sequence of events. • Select books that invite children’s participation in the story.
