No. 112 (2020): FEMINISM AND FANTASY
This issue of the YA Hotline explores Feminism and Strong Female Characters in fantasy literature. These topics are important for libraries and young adult workers to know about because they affect how girls see themselves in the literature they are reading. If librarians can recommend books that have strong females in them then girls and even other readers will have good role models to look to. There are several annotated bibliographies that have compiled different lists relating to feminism and female characters as well as several articles exploring individual characters and books that could be considered good resources for teens to read.
