Omschrijving
This superb guide to 'teaching Anita and Me' with knowledge-rich, academic teaching at its core will open doors to English teams who may be reluctant to teach a lesser-known text. The importance of this is not to be dismissed: Anita and Me being seen more commonly on the curriculum will open minds, eyes and worlds into cultures, and help students who - for too long - have struggled to relate to the current white, middle-class, male heavy curriculum to see characters like themselves through the eyes of subject experts in the English discipline. A colossal well done to the authors - I only wish it came out sooner so that when I was Head of English, I could feel as comfortable to place the text on my curriculum as I would do having now read this guide.
