Who and why burn books?

Prior to the introduction of the printing press, book burning is an effective form of censorship. Since each book is handmade, there were few books, and it was possible to limit the dissemination of ideas and information through the burning of books. Lately he had other purposes. Foreign governments have used burning and other destruction to intimidate and show their power. In the 2000s there was a case series of Harry Potter book burning. In the US, most of the book burning of various books I have been motivated by religious beliefs to read.

Autodafé: 2001-2005

Until Harry Potter books, it was not common, children's book series, to find the most important impulse for a fire. In 2001, many of these book burnings are held. In early January 2002, the Community Church of Christ in Alamogordo, New Mexico, was it the subject of international media attention for his book-burning by the Pastor Jack D. Brock, a sermon on the subject of "Baby Jesus or Harry Potter?". Brock he said the Harry Potter books as "an example of the growing concern in our society with the occult. The Harry Potter books available witchcraft as a positive general practice, while the Bible specifically condemns all occult practices." After burning the books of Harry Potter and other December 30, 2001, sermon the pastor and the book burning event has become the subject of new features, both in the US and England. , CNN.com reported "as hundreds protested near a group of burned church and other Harry Potter books" The BBC (British Broadcasting Company) said: "Pastor Brock said he had never read any of the four Potter novels - ., but he studied its contents "had

In August 2003 the nondenominational Church of Jesus in Greenville, Michigan, was burned the Harry Potter books, according to a Forbes article. According to the article, "" Parents [should], which is more than a book of fiction, "says Turner [one of the pastors]" in the occult inserted "(Source: Forbes ..: Harry Potter and the Ministry of fire, 12:01. 06)

According to the American Library Association, there were several events burning of books in 2001 in connection with the series of Harry Potter, and there were also reports of burning of books or other books in 2001, 2002, 2004 and 2005 drilled.

Burns latest book

Amazing Grace Baptist Church in Canton, North Carolina, said on its website (since removed) burning of the book Halloween 2009, which was interrupted by rain, although the targeted books were destroyed, and plans to 2010 the church fire. The burning of books are not open to the public, but they were by invitation only. Directed in the case of members of the Church, what they call "Bible Satan" who do not call on the King James Version and other books and music.

In August 2010, a church in Gainesville, Florida, was known that he would burn the Koran on September 11, although they denied a permit to burn the city. While reducing and the books that they have detected break, means the destruction of books in groups that do not want the law violated in the cases where it is illegal, the church burn planned to defy the law to be targeted , After a wave of international protests, however, he canceled to prevent burning the burning church, but not in time, riots and deaths during protests against the Quran (Koran). (Source: Reuters, September 11, 2010)

I was surprised that the fire continues to this day. It is an extreme form of censorship that most people, even those who support the difficult books and censorship are not supported.

Candlewick Press

Definition: A picture book picture book is a book in which the images are as important as (or even more important than) the words to say, the story. Picture books are usually 32 pages, though few Golden Books have 24 pages. In picture books, there are illustrations on every page, or one of each pair of opposite sides. While most are written picture books for children, in recent years they have released a number of excellent books for readers in primary and secondary schools.

The terms "biography book images" and "the history of the illustrated book" refers to non-fiction books written and illustrated the picture book format.

The definition of "picture book" greatly expands when Brian Selznick won the Caldecott Medal 2008 for picture book illustrations for his book The Invention of Hugo Cabret, a 525-page novel medium quality, which tells the story of a series of successive images (more than 280 pages sets throughout the book) as well as the words of Selznick.

Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak it became a classic. Winner of the Caldecott Medal in 1964 as "the most important book picture of the year" was first described by Harper Collins 1963 Description If the book was written, the question of the administration of the dark feelings was rare in children's literature, especially in the picture book format for toddlers.

History

But after more than 50 years, where the Wild Things are popular the impact of the work in the field of children's literature, the impact of the story and illustrations of young readers.

The plot of the game is based on (and real) imaginary bad effects of a small child. One night, Max Wolf carries his suit and made all sorts of things you should not, such as hunting with the dog with a fork. His mother scolds him and calls him a "Wild Thing!" Max is so crazy screaming again: "I'm going to eat" Consequently, his mother sends him to his room without supper.

Max imagination transformed his room in an exceptional environment, with sea and forest and a small sailboat on Max, until it reached a land of "Wild Things". Despite its appearance, and very hard, Max is able to tame a glance. Take all Max is "..the wildest of all," and make him their king. The monsters are also time creating a ruckus until Max begins his wish "... someone who loved him best of all." Max fantasy ends when you feel your dinner. Despite the protests of the wild things, Max travels found back to his room, where he is waiting for his dinner.

The book entitled

This is a particularly attractive story, because Max is in conflict with his mother and his own anger. Although he always angry when he sent in his room, Max did not continue his antics. Instead, there are no limits to their feelings of anger about his imagination, then to make a decision that is not going to let his anger separates him from those he loves and who love him, it comes.

Max is a lovable character. Their actions to follow the dog to you are to speak to his mother realistic. Your emotions are also realistic. It is very common for children to tease and fantasize about what you could do if you ruled the world and to calm down and think about the consequences. Max is the easily identified 3-6 years child.

Summarize

In summary, the Wild Things Are is an excellent book. What makes a book so extraordinary is the creative imagination of Maurice Sendak, both writer and artist Maurice Sendak. (To learn more about it, see my article of the art and the influence of Maurice Sendak) .The text and pictures complement each other that are perfect along the history. The transformation of Max's room a forest is a visual delight. The illustrations in pen and ink color Sendak are in soft colors at the same time humorous and sometimes a little scary what both the imagination of Max and his anger. The issues of conflict and the characters are those with whom readers can identify all ages. I also know from personal experience that it hear a book that children can enjoy again and again.
