Online Resources for K-12 Teachers: Children's and Adolescent Literature. ERIC Digest D149.
With the increasing popularity of the Internet, teachers now are actively seeking online resources that will support the preparation of their lessons. This Digest aims to provide useful Internet resources for K-12 teachers who would like to integrate children's and adolescent literature into their curriculum. Preparation of this Digest began with a retrospective review of literature-related questions received over the last two years by the Reference staff of the ERIC Clearinghouse on Reading, English, and Communication. Four categories of frequently posed requests were then identified: (1) literature-based lesson plans, (2) aids to materials selection, (3) online publications for and by K-12 students, and (4) professional development resources. Finally, using Abdullah's (1998) guides for website evaluation, we selected the following websites for each of these

"He Wishes for the Cloths of Heaven"
Had I the heaven's embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half-light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams.
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.

TITLE: The Children's Literature Web Guide ACCESS: http://www.acs.ucalgary.ca/~dkbrown/ The Children's Literature Web Guide maintains a collection of Internet resources for young readers and others interested in children's literature. The site was established in 1994, and is managed by David K. Brown, Director, Doucette Library of Teaching Resources, University of Calgary. In the Introduction section, Brown hopes that users of this site will be "tempted away from the Internet, and back to the books themselves!" The site is organized into four main categories: Features, Discussion Boards, Quick Reference, and More Links. Under Features, users can browse What's New to keep up-to-date on newly-added links and updates to the entire site. The Web-Traveller's Toolkit annotates selected children's literature web sites and is a good starting point for further exploration. The Discussion Boards provide a forum for comments on recent award-winning books, readers seeking answers to various children's literary topics, and postings on conferences and programs. Quick Reference offers information on awards given to children's literature, and links to children's best seller's lists, as well as "top picks" lists from professional organizations and publications. Also part of Quick Reference is the Doucette Index, which "provides access to books and websites that contain useful teaching suggestions related to books for children and young adults, and the creators of those books." While the books indexed are those held by the Doucette Library of Teaching Resources, this index identifies specific resources that may be available in other libraries. More Links contains good collections of links to authors and illustrators, resources for parents and teachers, and lists of publishers and booksellers.

Excerpt
To Western eyes, Africa has historically appeared as the unknowable "Dark Continent" of Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness (1902). While scholars today may be more aware than in the past of the cultural biases that undergird such depictions, the mystical terms of previous concepts of Africa remain part of popular culture. Significantly, "The Dark Continent" [End Page 452] was the name chosen for a popular theme park in Florida featuring African animals in a "natural" habitat. This imagined Africa is a romanticized continent of jungle and safari. Filmssuch as the recent
