Abstract

The biggest practical challenges in using English language children's literature rather than readers created specifically for EFL/ESL students are:

  • choosing an appropriate book
  • preparing to teach, from writing lesson plans to developing supporting teaching materials
  • brainstorming creative teaching ideas

This paper will serve as a guide for those who would like to use literature in the classroom with their young students, but aren't sure how to begin.
