Dear CCBC-Net Community,
We know the on-topic CCBC-Net discussion (women's history in children's and young adult literature) has been slow in recent days. Still, we do want to remind you that CCBC-Net is not an open forum for announcements and dicussion that does not relate to the current discussion topic on children's and young adult literature. There are other discussion lists that welcome open announcements and discussion topics. But many people value CCBC-Net for the very reason that it is focuses, and we are committed to keeping it that way. (We also realize that sometimes our tangents turn into unforseen discussions about issues in children's and young adult literature that we hadn't envisioned when a topic was first announced, and we do try to remain flexible enough to embrace such discussions when they arise....)
Our apologies for being remiss as facilitators in not stepping in sooner this month to promote more on-topic discussion of women's history.
Today will be the las day to post on women's history. Tomorrow we will turn our attention to religion in books for youth.
Who has final reflections, or books to share, or thoughts about how the women's history/women's role in history have been treated in literature for children and teenagers?
