Representing the Holocaust in children's literature

Author:	Lydia Kokkola
Publisher:	New York : Routledge, 2003.
Series:	Children's literature and culture, 26.
Edition/Format:	Print book : Fiction : Juvenile audience : EnglishView all editions and formats
Summary:	Deals with the issue of how children should be taught about the Holocaust via literature. Among the problems discussed are the difficulties of writing about atrocity, and ways of combining "faction" and fiction so that children understand that fiction may convey truths about time, place, and types of events. Discusses the need to "pleasure" readers so that they will continue to read despite the extremely unpleasurable topics. Favors the approach of "ethical criticism" to Holocaust literature for children (a number of examples are discussed), since the reading of such literature affects a child's understanding both of the Holocaust and of antisemitism and racism encountered in his or her own experience.  Read more...
