"The Child as Critic: Developing Literacy through Literature, K-8" by Glenna Davis Sloan explores the integral role of literature in nurturing critical thinking and literacy skills among young readers. The book emphasizes the importance of engaging children in thoughtful discussions about stories, enabling them to express their interpretations and responses. Through various strategies, it guides educators on how to create environments where students can analyze texts, connect themes to their own experiences, and cultivate a love for reading. The focus on literature as a tool for self-expression and critical engagement aims to empower children, enhancing both their literacy and personal growth.
