2024 IAGC Conference

In this book rich presentation, we will explore the many ways that picture books can challenge our advanced, accelerated, and young literacy learners. Among the topics discussed in the session we will exam books using the "whole book approach,” as well as a look at picture books that are categorized as metafictive. This type of picture book provides a challenging break from the traditional narrative structures using alternative constructs to challenge the reader and budding writers as well as provide a model for critical/creative thinking, perspective, and point of view.
