Reviews
Advertising, propaganda, social media, and the news are explored here, both historically and currently, with an emphasis on the effect of modern technology. These topics are presented in a balanced manner. The authors aim to grow children into discerning, media-literate youngsters adept at making informed choices and opinions with their media experiences. . . .A necessary purchase for preparing children to navigate today's media-rich landscape.-- School Library Journal, Series Made Simple These two titles did a great job of building awareness of how word choice is used to convince, promote, and influence opinion in positive and negative ways. They also do a great job of giving examples of how advertising and propaganda subtly infiltrate all forms of media.-- School Library Connection
