Young Adult Literature in the High School.

Wilder, Ann, Ed.; Teasley, Alan B., Ed.

ALAN Review, v26 n1 p42-45 Fall 1998

Discusses three ways that high school English teachers can use young adult books: as books for whole-class study, as read-alouds, and as "classroom library" books to recommend to students for independent reading. Presents criteria for selecting novels for classroom study and for reading aloud. Mentions 53 young adult novels to consider for these various uses. (SR)
