Abstract | The five articles in this special issue of the bulletin deal with age discrimination in children's books. The first article is the first of two parts that deal with how older people are stereotyped; part 1 presents the statistical findings of the first major study of stereotypes based on age and ageism in children's literature, while part 2 illustrates ageist stereotypes with examples. The third article presents statistics and information to counter common ageist myths. The fourth articles presents practical consciousness raising exercises on ageism for classrooms, which can be adapted for adult workshops. The final article provides an annotated list of recommended books to counter ageist stereotypes and myths, and a list of organizations concerned with fighting ageism. (Author/AM) |
