CHL 438 Greening of Children's & Young Adult Literature

Builds a theoretical foundation for ecocriticism as it applies to children's and young adult literature. Draws from a diverse range of voices and texts (e.g., The Lorax, The Birchbark House, The Hunger Games, The Hate U Give), decenters dominant paradigms, which privilege (white) human life above all other nature and troubles, ideas of what constitutes wilderness, consciousness, agency, and growth.
