Goodson lagoodson@cox.net Winter 1999 Volume 26, Number 2 YOUNG ADULT LITERATURE FOR YOUNG ADULT MALES Sam D. Gill In our experiences as teachers or media specialists, many of us have noticed the same phenomenon: adolescent males often tend to enjoy literature less than their female counterparts. Of course, as middle school and high school teachers and media specialists, we have no control over the early reading experiences or instruction a male child receives, and since the patterns of reading behavior have been established long before he reaches our classroom, it may seem impossible to help him become an avid reader. But it is not impossible. In fact, helping a male become an enthusiastic reader may be as simple as offering a kind of literature that will engage him with intriguing plots, fast-paced action, and characters who not only catch his interest, but who mirror the life that he is living. Recent critical studies of the subject matter and themes of young adult literature have included focuses on the presentation of female gender roles ( ), readers' responses to the portrayal of racial minorities (

A National Survey of the Use of Multicultural Young Adult Literature in University Courses David Gill In a 1998 NCTE publication, United In Diversity: Using Young Adult Multicultural Literature In The Classroom (Jean Brown and Elaine Stephens, editors) Ted Hipple of the University of Tennessee professed to being a "pooper" about multicultural literature. In his chapter, "Puzzlements from a Pooper; on Much Confusion about 'Multicultural'," Hipple explained that he was confused about what makes a novel multicultural. Does multicultural literature include all cultures, or is it predominately a movement to include racial and ethnic minorities in the literary canon? He is not alone in his questioning, especially among those teaching young adult literature at the university level. According to research published in The ALAN Review by Melissa Comer ( ), professors teaching young adult literature (YAL) believe that multicultural literature is important. In her dissertation
