Reviews

Bringing decades of teaching experience to bear, Paula Greathouse and Cody Miller bring forth this second volume on teaching queer young adult literature in English language arts classes. This collection features many recently published young adult texts that tell the stories of a wide array of identities, conflicts, settings, and characters, as well as a historical overview of the queer young adult genre by two titans of young adult scholarship: Michael Cart and Joan Kaywell. This collection is the most comprehensive resource available for teachers today for teaching queer young adult literature.--Victor Malo-Juvera, professor, Department of English, University of North Carolina, Wilmington Greathouse and Miller have brought together some of the freshest voices in the field of queer English education to foreground the experiences of LGBTQ+ characters of color with complexity, nuance, compassion, and respect and to attend to innovative media, literary structures, and genres. And as if that were not enough, the authors introduce, describe, and explore riveting literature for classrooms. It is this combination of the authors' brilliant pedagogical ideas and compelling curriculum that make this edited volume not only of great use to middle and high school ELA teachers but also a true pleasure to read.--Mollie V. Blackburn, professor, Department of Teaching & Learning, The Ohio State University
