ABC-CLIO Sensitive Issues An Annotated Guide to Childrens Literature K-6 1992 Edition by Cindy S. Gillespie, Timothy V. Rasinski
Because children's literature explores serious issues using situations and language young students can readily understand, the authors of Sensitive Issues have selected current fiction and nonfiction elementary-level titles that can also be developed into units of study. They describe popular high-quality literature and stimulating activities to help young people deal with specific and important issues in their lives: divorce, substance abuse, death and dying, nontraditional home environments, child abuse, prejudice and cultural differences, moving, and disabilities.
