Hello all. So I am in english 103-focus on children's literature. We have a gicantic argumentive/research essay that I need a topic for. The topic can be about any children's book, children's book author or series that we would like. However we must "make a claim" about something in the book and support it with a bajillion sources soo I am having a hard time thinking of a strong thesis. I am really starting to freak out and I need some help so if you have some ideas, please shoot them at me!!!
Examples:
Look at a particular series in children's literature (i.e. the Harry Potter books, Nancy Drew, Hardy Boys ets.) Discuss the role of the series in children's literature, making a specific claim (thesis statement) about the series. Support your thesis with evidence from selected books in the sries and outside support.
Discuss the oevre of a favorite or well-known children's literature author such as Judy Blume, Beverley Cleary, Shel Silverstein, Dr. Seuss, etc. Make a claim about the author's work, then prove that claim is true by giving specific examples from his/her work and suppoet from outside source.
I can think of any "claims" my brain is just going dead right now so please hhheelllp!!!
