Doubletalk: A Literary Pairing of "The Giver" and "We Are All in the Dumps with Jack and Guy."

Lehman, Barbara A.; Crook, Patricia R.

Children's Literature in Education, v29 n2 p69-78 Jun 1998

Pairs two books that might stimulate children's literary awareness--Lois Lowry's fantasy novel, "The Giver," and Maurice Sendak's picture book, "We Are All in the Dumps with Jack and Guy." Finds that the pairing and comparisons increased understandings about each work and how complementary they really are. (PA)
