The chapters cover a huge variety of topics including: eco-pedagogy; depictions of food and malnutrition; engaging nature through graphic narratives; using indigenous children's stories to navigate the Anthropocene; how children's literature can enable eco-literate young people; social and environmental justice in Latinx literature; and how (re)reading popular dystopian workscan help youth readers identify eco-critical hope in seemingly end-of-the-world narratives.
A model for how humanities scholarship can have an impact greater than itself, Children's Literature, Cultures and Pedagogies in the Anthropocene demonstrates how children's texts and cultures might encourage ways of living more ethically in a world constantly changing.
