Horn Book (Wed Apr 01 00:00:00 CDT 2009)

These books address concepts such as recognizing and examining biases in the media. Source raises thought-provoking questions relative to perception, perspective, and deliberate deception. Yourspace presumes a certain level of prior knowledge (IM, podcasts, etc.). Illustrations, screen shots, "Try It Out!" and "Reality Check" sidebars, and quizzes make the pages crowded. Reading list, timeline. Glos., ind.
