RE: [xmca] Child Development in Film and Literature: Help!



I did this once with a class.  By far the most powerful book we read was Toni Morrison's "The Bluest Eye."  It was her first novel and hits very hard but with great elegance on topics that are normally both taboo and everyday.

Subject: [xmca] Child Development in Film and Literature: Help!
 
I am thinking of teaching a course on the way the process of child
development
is represented in film and literature. Mostly I am aimed at fiction, but
classic studies
such as "7 up" would count, I guess, but the focus is on fiction. Just not
lecture on the topic.

Frankenstein is on my list.
400 Blows
South Park TV program
The Simpsons...

I would really welcome suggestions.
