Be different! Use your Mind



Literature is a reflection of real life. Thus through literature, human can understand and reflect to the world. Literature may also provide a meaningful and content feeling for the reader. It is obvious that Human will grow, eventually from a stage to the next stage as they aged. The same goes for the suitability of the types of literature that caters to each stages of life. The stages here refer to the Psychological Development Theory proposed by Erik Eriksson. As the stages shifted, so thus the exposures towards the type of literatures that suit each stage. For literature for children and adolescents (LCA) it covers the 3 stages, the play age (3-5 years), the school age (6-12 years) and adolescence (12-18 years) while after that, the child was shifted to the adult world where everything is real and every individuals are accounted for each of their actions. Thus the exposure of a heavier, realistic and more meaningful literature is needed - the adult literature (LA). Both type of literature is considered as a piece of writings that are treated as a piece of arts. But the language, the semantics, the psychological and its physical aspects are different.

As human mature, so thus the mind set.
