Reseña del editor:

This book will show you how to provide your middle school students - especially those from the dominant culture - with a greater understanding and appreciation of literature from other cultures. Although much has been written about using multicultural literature in the classroom, there has been little systematic study of classroom practice and outcomes in achieving multicultural literacy. Author Dressel helps fill this gap with her study of one teacher and her eighth-grade classes of 123 dominant-culture readers who participated in a multicultural literature unit. Her account of what happened in the study and her suggestions for classroom practice will challenge your assumptions and stimulate you to reflect on teaching, learning, and cultures.
