Young Adult Authors Series: Presenting Young Adult Science Fiction (Twayne's United States Authors Series) Suzanne Elizabeth Reid 1st edition

Beginning with an introduction that examines the works and influence of the classical masters of science fiction and its development as an accepted literary genre, author Suzanne Reid in her new volume, Presenting Young Adult Science Fiction, explores in detail the lives and works of eight major figures of particular interest to teens. Written as an introduction to science fiction, especially as it relates to young adult readers, this book is aimed primarily at students and teachers who have not previously read the genre. Presenting Young Adult Science Fiction will serve as a valuable asset to any teacher of young people over the age of ten, and inspire thinking about a wide range of issues from practical management of physical resources to metaphysical queries into the very meaning of our existence. It is a must have for any young adult library.
