Description
This book is for the LIS instructor who is looking for something that combines the literature with the practical in teaching courses in materials for children and young adults for an audience of school and public children's librarians. It provides an activity oriented survey of young adult literature for undergraduate and graduate students seeking licensure and degrees leading to careers working with young adults in school and public libraries. Actions that teachers, librarians, young adults, and students of library science may choose for involving themselves in literature are embedded in a genre approach.

Reviews:
-"Young Adult Literature in Action will be a great text for courses in young adult literature at the undergraduate and graduate levels. It also is suitable for inclusion in professional collections for public librarians and school librarians serving the young adult. Librarians looking for a collection development tool can put this title to work for them. This book is filled with information about the young adult, literacy issues of the young adult, awards presented in the young adult field, organizations dedicated to young adult literature, resources for further study, and much more. . . . This is an outstanding title. . ." —Catholic Library World
