"This collection of essays achieves a number of significant contributions to the field of picturebook studies...complex and delicate exploration of many rich and demanding topics. It is a worthy addition to the shelves of picturebook studies."- Margaret Mackey, UKLA "As a reviewer of children's books, I found this book fascinating. […] It certainly gives teachers and librarians food for thought." – Parents in Touch, UK "Challenging and Controversial Picturebooks is a fascinating and illuminating collection of work that makes us re-evaluate child and adult responses to both word and image. As ever, Janet Evans' style ably demystifies her scholarship and promotes the reader's ability to interpret her subject. As a result the book should find a wide and appreciative audience amongst all those interested in picture books and their role, and will be of especial value to teachers and students in schools, and in further and higher education." - Bridget Carrington, IBBYLink, UK "Even before I started to read Part I of Challenging and Controversial Picturebooks, I washooked! Janet Evans has very cleverly not only chosen eminent picturebook theorists fromaround the world to contribute to this exciting and very readable book, she has alsodesigned it in such a way that one is plunged into the world of children’s acceptance ofcomplex narratives as a precursor to more theoretical input." – Penni Cotton, CLELE Journal "This collection of essays achieves a number of significant contributions to the field of picturebook studies.Evans serves us well with this display of children’s voices raised in discussion of contemporary politics." - Margaret Mackey, LiteracyUKLA "This is a book that introduces the reader to a whole new world of picturebooks and raises the following query: if picturebooks are a safe way for children to explore the real world, then, perhaps our picturebooks need to reflect reality a little more closely?" - Lucy Kelly, Bristol University "Challenging and Controversial Picturebooks leaves the reader with many inspiring and provocative ideas" - Krystyna Zabawa, International Research Society for Children's Literature (IRSCL) "Picturebooks are often assumed to be for the very young; however, this edit-ed volume by Janet Evans shows that picturebooks and other visual texts with challenging and controversial topics and illustrations provide rich opportunities for responses by readers of all ages, including young children, who are able to derive rich meanings from such complicated texts. These 'unconventional, non-conformist' books push all readers to question deep philosophical and psychological issues and are reflecting our post-modern and increasingly diverse world." - Donna Sayers Adomat, Bookbird: A Journal of International Children's Literature
