Encouraging Literacy for Personal Development.
Boody, Robert M.
Reading Improvement, v40 n3 p99-103 Fall 2003
Considers that because literature can exert such a powerful hold on the imagination, certain works can be used to invite students to become more literate and to encourage students to take responsibility for their ongoing personal development. Notes that reading and other ways of learning are shown in fictional works of Louis L'Amour to be a rich source for enjoyment, for personal growth, and for success in life. (SG)
