Books I've Used for Teaching Fantasy - Page 6

These are books |'ve used for various Science Fiction courses for adolescents in the last 40+ years. The beginning has resources. After that, the books are in chronological order until about 2018, with a few exceptions. At the end are three themed sections: (a) parodies, (b) books that live on the border of science fiction and fantasy, and (c) a few comic books from fantasy. Note that Elfquest belongs in (b) and (c). There are probably other titles in the mix that belong in (a), (b), or (c) that I either left in the general pool or forgot altogether.
I'd love comments or questions about the list or specific books. And if you have suggestions for inclusion, that would be great!
