Product Image

Editor(s): Power Brenda Miller, Jeffrey D. Wilhelm, Kelly Chandler

This collection of essays spotlights the ways in which King's work intersects the themes of the literary canon and its construction and maintenance, censorship in public schools, and the need for adolescent readers to be able to choose books in school reading programs. With contributions from librarians and literary scholars, high school teachers and students, policymakers, parents, and Stephen King himself, this book maps out the terms of a debate sure to interest literacy educators at all levels.
