Shattering Images of Violence in Young Adult Literature: Strategies for the Classroom
Stacy Miller

Stacy Miller presents a unit on violence in young adult literature where she begins by helping students understand violence and its origins. Through activities and class discussion, students express strong, informed opinions about Shattering Glass by Gail Giles and recognize the need to read and view images of violence from an oppositional perspective.
