With literature reviews, structured charts that highlight the killer and mother motifs, sections on ideological takeaways related to these motifs, and clear teaching ideas, this book offers a wealth of tools to the scholar and teacher of YA dystopias. Regarding the lesson ideas, Alkestrand notes that “it is possible to use the same or similar tasks for other YA dystopian works” (238), emphasizing the transferability of these prompts. With its exemplary organization and thorough coverage of YA dystopian literature, Mothers and Murderers is a wonderful addition to the corpus of scholarship on this popular genre.","PeriodicalId":43426,"journal":{"name":"LION AND THE UNICORN","volume":"47 1","pages":"100 - 97"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46761609","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
