Description
Palgrave Teaching Harry Potter The Power of Imagination in Multicultural Classrooms 2013 Edition by C. Belcher, B. Stephenson
Given the current educational climate of high stakes testing, standardized curriculum, and 'approved' reading lists, incorporating unauthorized, popular literature into the classroom becomes a political choice. The authors examine why teachers choose to read Harry Potter , how they use the books, and the resulting teacher-student interactions.
