Latinx Children's and Young Adult Literature and Culture: An Introduction examines the early foundations, current trends, and future directions of the field of Latinx youth literature, media, and culture. This textbook introduces readers, students, and scholars to the field’s shifting dynamics, beginning with some of the earliest published texts in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries to more contemporary materials today. Each chapter includes a list of suggested further readings to enrich students’ and scholars’ understandings and provides possible avenues for independent reading and research. Including a glossary and research and teaching snapshots, this book highlights core concepts such as immigration and diaspora, transnationality, gender, sexuality, and activism, and provides avenues for further research and reading.
