Playing with Books

A Study of the Reader as Child

Beschreibung

This ambitious study of the textual characteristics of children's literature examines its history and stylistics, analyzes the modern conception of childhood, and dissects the rhetoric of selected children's novels. Underlying it all is the author's interest in children's play and what it reveals about their nature and the literature intended for them.
