About this product

Product Information

This book offers a thorough exploration of historical fiction for young adults, examining popular and compelling books that illuminate the past and define the struggles faced by young people in those times. Teens don't read historical fiction, right? Wrong! Although some teens may associate historical fiction with schoolwork, by using the genre approach, library specialists and history teachers can suggest titles that teen readers will actually enjoy. Thanks to heightened interest by both readers and publishers in historical fiction, there are now more subvarieties of this genre available than ever before. This title was written to provide guidance through this expanding category for teen librarians, teachers, and school media specialists. In Historical Fiction for Teens: A Genre Guide, YA librarian Melissa Rabey organizes more than 300 titles by subgenre and theme-from thrills and action stories to historical fantasy. Descriptive annotations, subject lists, reading levels, and read-alikes are given for each title; award winners and titles appropriate for book clubs are noted. Appendices include a list of award-winning titles as well as several thematic booklists, allowing time-pressed readers to quickly find high-quality books or be ready for common requests Features sidebars and sections that explore specialized topics, such as Arthurian times and novels in verse A title index shows which books are annotated within the work, providing an easy way to locate favorite titles
