Harry Potter and Beyond

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

The Harry Potter book series has proven successful in transforming children's reading and drawing enthusiasm from both boys and girls alike. Children's Literacy Practices and Preferences: Harry Potter and Beyond provides empirical evidence of young people's reported literacy practices and views on reading, and how the Harry Potter series has impacted their own academic achievements. It explores and debunks some of the myths surrounding Harry Potter and literacy, and contextualizes these in children's wider reading collections.
