商品簡介
This collection of essays by Aronson, a publisher involved with books for youths, begins with his controversial assertion that awards such as some offered by the American Library Association specifically for Asian-American, Latino, and black artists should not be defined by the ethnicity of their creators. He answers a storm of peer protest and explores such topics as the claims of principle and history; the uses of art in the aftermath of 9/11; and why adults can't read boy readers. The volume includes a chapter by one of Aronson's critics, Andrea Davis Pinkney. Annotation (c) Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
