Children's Literature: An Invitation to the World widens the lens on children's literature to reflect a world view. This text challenges the reader to look critically at each piece of literature and to consider the author's cultural understanding, values, and perspective on the world. The reader is also asked to examine his or her own world views-from cultural heritage to life experiences-and to reflect on how these views may manifest as biases when interpreting and teaching children's literature. Why do you cry when you read a book? With an approach that is both reflective and interactive, this text boasts a lively, passionate writing style designed to draw in the reader. Rather than focusing on an academic interpretation of literature, Mitchell encourages discussion about the impact books have on the reader in the affective domain-from sparking our imagination to touching our emotions. Children's Literature encourages discussion of why books affect us the way they do.
