Conference
Diversity through the Child's Eye
Author
- Erin Chambers (Iowa State University)
Abstract
This country is becoming more diverse. Children growing up in this diversifying nation are being taught life lessons about what is right and wrong. This session will illustrate how children's books and literature show how people are separated and treated differently and what effects that may have on today's youth. It will demonstrate how basic ideas of diversity are implanted in children's heads at a very early stage in life.
