Young Adult Literature
I announce voraciously in my youth. It was rare to see me without a book. And I read most books very fast and then read them half a dozen times.
I still enjoyment to read. I have a lot less time to do it. But I am usually reading some book- it just takes a lot longer and the retention of what I read is a lot less.
But the books of my teenager are what really stay with me.
My biggest obsession in elementary school was horses. Album of Horses was a constant handbook. I read Black Beauty 20 times. I played imaginary stable games in the hallway and stairwell of our apartment erection.
Entering middle school and into high school, I was reading the "classics" for school and also reading them because I just loved to deliver assign to and was deeply intrigued by what I learned. Lord Of The Flies, Animal Farm, Catcher In The Rye.
I also loved reading unassigned books... Judy Blume, Paula Danzinger, Cynthia Voigt. In the end moving into trashy romance novels, VC Andrews, and more.
Through a series of links, I discovered Lizzie Skurnick today. A collecting of essays about the YA Lit that formed our youth.
And I clicked over to this page of a collection of articles that Lizzie Skurnick had written about divers YA Lit from her own youth and how it impacted her.
Side note: Lizzie Skurnick authored 10 Sweet Valley High books. So she must be my vital spirit sister on some level. Jessica and Elizabeth were so much a part of my growing up!!!
But that collection of articles... I've read almost every single libretto listed on that link. And have serious sentimental and emotional attachments formed.
I think I'm going to make a list, hit the library, dig around at Half Consequence Books... I know I kept a good collection of some of my fave YA Lit from my youth.
So I must know. What's your fave YA Lit? Books from when you were growing up... recently written...

What is a good young adult literature book to do a literary argument/paper on?
I have to comprehend a young adult/ adolescent literature book for a reading class and am having trouble finding anything. What can anybody reccommend. It cant very recently be something like harry potter, it has to be something I could write a good paper on. Oh and if you have any topic ideas for the paper, that would be a tremendous relieve. Thanks.
It depends what you are interested in, but some complimentary ones, I think are as follows
Lord of the Flies by William Golding
--a bunch of English schoolboys are stranded on an atoll by themselves. They attempt to survive together and govern themselves, but it progresses into a savage existence. Very good. It is a representation of the idea that a society created by man fails, as well as the factious argument of human nature. Much symbolism.
Animal Farm by George Orwell
--don't laugh--animals take over a farmstead, expelling all things human and try to create a civil society. However, they find themselves progressing towards the same existence they started with--but with different oppressors. A manifestation of the authority manipulation and the inability to reach utopia.
One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest by Ken Kesey
--a highly-controlled loco ward is shaken when a rowdy new patient comes in, questioning all the rules imposed that keep the patients in a docile, bend to, fearful existence. A recurring theme of silent manipulative control in society.
These three are just starters, but if you go to sparknotes or look on google, you can find broad lists of books that fit your paper.

What are good Adult Literature books featuring Teen Protagonists?
My tutor is looking for a spring curriculum of good YA books that he can feature in an adult literature. He wants books that are interesting, good, and have "teenage protagonists." Hold responsible you very much.
Windchill Summer by Norrish Mailer is an outstanding book in which the three main protagonists are all young women right out of high school.
What's the difference between children's literature and young adult literature?
And not only say one is for children and the other one is for teenagers. That's not a good answer! 10 points for the best answer :)
Thank you all for your answers. What I would like to be sure exactly is if a fantasy story would always be considered a children's story. What are the 'conditions' for a fantasy story to be mean or written for teenagers? Is it the age of the characters? The participant? The inclussion of violence or sex? What is it?
You don't wish for much, so you? That's a question debated book by book! There's not even a good definition of what "young adult" is-- age 12? 13? And when does it end-- 17? 19? But in customary, young adult literature deals with more mature themes, with more nuances and shades of moral gray. Language may be more explicit, sexuality may be more stated, violence may be more explicit-- yet the book may have none of these things and still be considered YA. It's a combination of many factors, including interest (meaning a book may be entirely suitable for a child in terms of language, situation, etc. and still not hold much interest for a child, just as an adult book may be perfectly apt for a YA reader but not hold much interest for a YA.)
Here's one classroom definition:
Definition of a Young Adult Literature: Literature written for and marketed to young adults. Innocent adult literature is usually given the birth date of 1968 with the advent of S.E. Hinton's The Outsiders. Other forms of l iterature previously to to this date may have had young adult protagonists (such as Huck Finn), but it was usually intended for an adult audience. Characteristics of a young adult narrative usually include several of the following:
(1) a teenage (or young adult) protagonist
(2) first-person perspective
(3) adult characters in the background
(4) a restricted number of characters
(5) a compressed time span and familiar setting
(6) current slang
(7) detailed descriptions of mien and dress
(8) positive resolution
(9) few, if any, subplots
(10) an approximate length of 125 to 250 pages
What Is Not Young Adult (YA) Literature:
"While unsophisticated adults . . . will read 'classics' with teen protagonists--such as Mark Twain's Huckleberry Finn . . . or Louisa May Alcott's Not any Women or even William Golding's Lord of the Flies--such novels are not str ictly considered YA literature. Similarly, contemporary novels normal with adults and young people, such as those written by Danielle Steel, Tom Clancy, and Stephen King, are also not in the category of YA literature." (Christenbury, Leila. Making t he Way: Being and Becoming a Teacher of English Language Arts. Portsmouth, New Hampshire: Heinemann, 1994.)
The "classics" mentioned above do not fit into the juvenile adult literature category because they were intended for adult audiences. The popular fiction of Steele, Clancy, and King usually have adult characters. Recollect the two-part definition for young adult literature: written for and marketed to young adults.
that's from http://www.public.iastate.edu/~dniday/394syllabuss99.html
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS;
Heavens, no, chimera is not automatically children's lit. The same criteria as above come into play. For example, HIS DARK MATERIALS is often considered YA; part of the theme is an study into the nature of God. Jonathan Stroud's Bartlimaeus series questions authority in government (among other things). Interpret the list above; while things like current slang may not be applicable, many of the other things are, i.e. youthful protagonist, young themselves's pov, up to the young person to solve the problem, not adults, etc.
What good young adult fictional literature is out there on Salem Witch Trials?
I am looking for YA imaginary literature on the Salem Witch Trials to get some students I am helping with interested beyond Miller's play "The Crucible." I am hoping that unborn interest with additional readings will lead to discussion in relation to the actual historical events. I have 25 students, and I would like for each to skim an individual book, so any and all suggestions would be greatly accepted.
The Scarlet Missive (1850) is a novel written by, and is considered the magnum opus of, Nathaniel Hawthorne. Set in 17th-century Puritan Boston, it tells the tale of Hester Prynne, who gives birth after committing adultery and struggles to create a new life of repentance and respectableness. Throughout the novel, Hawthorne explores themes of legalism, sin, and guilt.
