Using the articles and ideas you have been exploring on the topics of diversity in children’s books, choose one book (or fairytale) you have read so far and analyze it from the perspective of cultural relevance/bias. In a 4-5 page paper, address the following questions: Is there evidence of bias in the book? What type? From whom would this book be culturally relevant? How do you know? Use the Anti-Bias Checklist and the Gathering Evidence of Cultural Relevance to work help you answer the questions. Refer explicitly to the terms and ideas found in Freeman and Derman-Sparks’s essays. Don’t forget to cite your sources and use the paper rubric as a guide which can be found on the assignment page Paper #2: Diversity in Children’s Literature
