Work it out wombats!. Episode 3, Snout and about
Work It Out Wombats! follows a playful trio of marsupial siblings -- Malik, Zadie, and Zeke -- who live with their grandmother (named Super!) in a fantastical treehouse apartment complex. The Treeborhood is home to a diverse and quirky community of neighbors who just happen to be wombats, snakes, moose, kangaroos, iguanas, fish, tarsiers, and eagles! Each day drops a new challenge into the Wombats' laps, requiring them to find, debug, fix, order (then re-order) -- and create, test, and re-create when things don't go according to plan. But thanks to their creativity and collaborative spirit, their sense of family, and the role they play within the larger Treeborhood community -- as problem-solvers, friends, and neighbors -- the Wombats always win the day. Episode 3: It's All Hands on Deck! when Zadie and Malik retrace their steps to locate Zeke's beloved stuffy. Then when Zadie messes up Mr. E's shell garden, the key to fixing the pattern is ... JunJun's song.

Heroes of Our Time
This article examines Devorah Omer’s first two historical children’s novels, Ben-Yehuda’s Eldest Son and Sarah, Heroine of NILI (both published in 1967), as a case study for the ideological role played by historical fiction for children and youth in 1960s Israel. A comparison of the novels with the historical sources on which Omer relied reveals how the selection of the figures of Sarah Aaronsohn and Itamar Ben-Avi allowed her to create a narrative that crossed the political divide while presenting the difficulties experienced by children and women in their encounters with the national myth. Omer’s novels thus play a dual role: they preserve the Zionist narrative and shape a collective memory consistent with the establishment of a sovereign Jewish state, while also raising issues that call into question the national narrative’s hegemonic status.

Reading Things Not Seen: A Reflection on Teaching Reading, Race, and Ghosts in Juvenile Detention
Ezekiel Joubert III discusses the (im)possibilities of using literature that includes the death of or violence on bodies of color and the presence of ghosts of color in curricula that supposedly promote social justice to examine how we read historical and social tragedies that haunt our historical and collective memory. Using the literary responses and reflections from juvenile detainees in a summer reading program, this studies shows how teens identified and named the racialized ghosts present in literature taught to juveniles. The article explains how reading the presence of racialized ghosts within the curriculum allowed students to co-construct knowledge, build a sociopolitical consciousness and engage in dialogue with one another and the texts in the era of extrajudicial killings of people of color in the era of #BlackLivesMatter and Trayvon Martin.

Acting Out Justice in J. J. Steinfeld’s “Courtroom Dramas”
The article provides an interpretation of “Courtroom Dramas,” a short story from J. J. Steinfeld’s fiction collection Would You Hide Me? (Gaspereau, 2003). First, the paper examines Steinfeld’s articulation of traumatic loss, and interprets the trial in “Courtroom Dramas” as a means for a grandson to mourn his deceased grandmother and (through memory of her) others unknown to him in the Holocaust. Here the fictional account of loss interacts productively with various theoretical models prevalent in the field of trauma studies. Second, historical justice issues embedded in this Holocaust story are revealed. Steinfeld’s fiction is situated, finally, within a body of auto-ethnographic writing on the Nazi genocide, work foregrounding trans-generational memory.
Cet article offre une interprétation de Courtroom Dramas, une nouvelle du recueil de J. J. Steinfield, Would You Hire Me? (Me cacheriez-vous ?) (Gaspereau, 2003). Il porte d’abord sur la manière dont Steinfeld exprime une perte dramatique et présente une interprétation du procès dans Courtroom Dramas comme un moyen pour le petit-fils de faire le deuil sa grand-mère décédée et (en se souvenant d’elle) de celui d’autres victimes de l’holocauste qu’il n’a pas connues. Une interaction productive se fait ici jour entre l’exposé de la perte dans une œuvre de fiction et divers modèles théoriques prévalant dans le domaine des études de traumatismes. En second lieu, l’article révèle des questions de justice historique enchâssées dans cette histoire de l’holo-causte. Enfin, il situe la nouvelle de Steinfeld dans l’ensemble des écrits auto-ethnographiques sur le génocide nazi, un travail qui met en avant la mémoire transgénérationnelle.
