Reseña del editor

Use global literature to instruct your students about diversity, help them realize they live in a global village, and enable them to build compassion, insight, and perhaps even constructive activism. This resource draws from the "Notable Books for a Global Society" booklists to explore current themes in global literature and offer ideas for implementing global literature in your classroom.The highlighted books provide a vastly diverse representation of life both inside and outside of the United States, setting this volume apart from other resources on multicultural literature. "Author Reflections" reveal NBGS book authors' own connections and commitment to diversity and encourage teachers to use global literature to build bridges to understanding. A free online supplement provides full annotations for all NBGS books selected from 1996 to 2005, as well as additional lists that you can use to plan genre, author, or culture units or to locate books for classroom libraries, independent reading suggestions, or read-aloud options.
