So, what influence do such popular characters as J. K. Rowling's, Harry Potter; Sherman Alexie's, Arnold Spirit; and John Green's, Hazel Grace Lancaster have on the development of young adolescents as people and as life-long readers? This course offers an introduction to young adult literature, with a focus on adolescent development and literacy.
