Juvenile and YA Fiction: What's the difference?
BiblioFiles: A CenterForLit Podcast about Great Books, Great Ideas, and the Great Conversation - Ein Podcast von Emily Andrews - Dienstags
Kategorien:
BiblioFiles is back! To launch our season on Juvenile and YA Fiction, Adam and Missy join Ian for a conversation about the state of literature for young readers today. What is the difference between a “juvenile” and “YA” classification? Should such a differentiation between genres exist in the first place? The CenterForLit Directors talk about the history of the split, their concerns for such specialization in the publishing industry, and a few ways they also see YA fiction currently being used for good.
