Nye barneboklesninger

Overview & Synopsis

In this anthology you will find research articles on several new children’s books and series, alongside essays by children's literature authors and visual artists. The articles demonstrate methods for close reading of children's literature, and both the articles and essays offer inspiration for further research and study of children's literature. This book is published in tandem with a companion volume on contemporary young adult literature (Nye ungdomsboklesninger [New Readings in Young Adult Literature]). Both anthologies share a commitment to strengthening research on literature for children and adolescents and to highlighting books that foster rewarding reading experiences. Literature continually evolves, and each new generation of readers needs fresh, meaningful books. This volume will be relevant for researchers and students, schoolteachers and early childhood educators, librarians, and anyone interested in new insights into literature and fostering children's love of reading. The anthology contains articles about various types of books by both established and emerging authors and visual artists: Lisa Aisato, Nora Dåsnes, Endre Lund Eriksen, Malin Falch, Jon Fosse, Jørn Lier Horst, Åshild Irgens, Mari Kanstad Johnsen, Ruth Lillegraven, Hannah Mileman, Per Ragnar Møkleby, Torstein Nordstrand, Simon Nyhus, Erna Osland, Maria Parr, Hans Jørgen Sandnes, Ketil Selnes, Bjørn Sortland and Arne Svingen.
