  • Summary

  • This is a compelling conversation on the impact of children’s literature on identity formation.

    Dr. Ar brings a unique global and cultural lens to the study of literature, having earned her Ph.D. from Ege University in 2025 after completing her Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in American Culture and Literature and a minor in Sociology from Hacettepe University. With a deep commitment to interdisciplinary research and teaching, Dr. Ar explores how stories shape self-perception, racial identity, and belonging—especially among young readers.
