Jan Fields on The Role of Dialogue and Narrative at ICL

Jan Fields posted a helpful article entitled "The Role of Dialogue and Narrative" at the Institute of Children's Literature.

The entire read is fascinating, but I found the bit comparing how one would narrate the same scene for younger readers vs. for intermediate readers or teens quite instructional.

(Is it "found it quite instructional" or "found it to be quite instructional"?) Oh my!

Enjoy.
