Introduction

As a departure from my usual reviews of children’s literature, your Rogue Reviewer would like to change focus to make a professional presentation on cultural literacy.  Most of the books your children read or you read to them contain vocabulary and allusions which you explain to your child if he seems confused by the information.  Having an acquaintance with cultural terminology including people, places, objects, events, and topics increases your child’s ability to comprehend material and communicate with others.

            I’ve listed the parts to my presentation to the left of the page for those who wish to view individual posts.  Another option is to scroll down to see the entire presentation in order.  Each category leads to the next, but all could be viewed independently.  Join me for a formal presentation of a critical component in education: cultural literacy.
