Sex Roles and Cultural Diversity in Recent Award Winning Picture Books for Young Children.

Dellmann-Jenkins, Mary; And Others

Journal of Research in Childhood Education, v7 n2 p74-82 Spr-Sum 1993

Updated previous research on how gender is being presented in award-winning picture books for young children by replicating a study conducted by Collins, Ingoldsby, and Dellmann in 1984. This study also extended the research design used in the prior investigation by examining the books for portrayal of both androgyny and cultural diversity. (TJQ)
