Teaching and Learning about Multicultural Literature: Students Reading Outside Their Culture in a Middle School Classroom

This book shares the findings of a study of one teacher, Ann, and her eighth-grade classes of 123 readers who participated in a multicultural literature unit. A feature of the study was that the majority of the students were white--that is, the dominant culture--and studied novels representing nondominant cultures.
