Young Adult Vs. Adult Literature4/24/2018 Based on readings, young adult literature should reflect the reader’s age and developmental levels while addressing their interests and reading comprehension abilities. The content usually includes contemporary conflicts and experiences with characters to whom younger students can relate. Young adult literature also considers contemporary world views including gender social cultural, and social diversity.
