Wrote of Black Youth
for the Young
A Conversation with Walter Dean Myers on NCTE Blog ReadWriteThink
If there is anyone in the
world of children’s and young adult literature who could be described as
a living legend, it’s Walter Dean Myers. Tune in to hear how his own
experiences as a reader have shaped his approach to storytelling, what
he seeks to offer young people through his writing, and the thinking
behind a select handful of his novels – books that incorporate concepts
as varied as magical realism, the social contract, and oral histories
with our nation’s war veterans.
