Dr. James Zarrillo completed a series of three studies focusing on the use of children's literature in the elementary school classroom. The first, his doctoral dissertation, examined a group of innovative teachers who had abandoned basal readers in favor of children's literature (published in The Reading Teacher; vol. 80, pp. 153 - 158). The second, completed with Carole Cox at CSU Long Beach, analyzed literature-based instruction through Louise Rosenblatt's theoretical framework (published as a chapter in the book, Reader Stance and Literary Understanding). The third was action research project completed in a third grade classroom (published in The New Advocate, vol. 4, pp. 221 - 234). Earlier, Dr. Zarrillo examined the books of Beverly Cleary for their instructional implications (published in Children's Literature Association Quarterly, vol. 13, pp. 131 - 135). Recently, Dr. Zarrillo's focus has shifted, devoting his time to writing methodology books on curriculum and instruction.
