Description

The York Notes Companion to Children’s Literature explores the literature and criticism of a long-established genre, from fairy tales and early didactic literature through to the classics of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries and the modern day. Examining key texts such as Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, Swallows and Amazons, Where the Wild Things Are and The Cat in the Hat, the Companion offers close analysis of texts in detailed commentaries, and guides students through key literary theories and debates. Connecting texts to their historical and scholarly contexts, this is essential reading for any student of children's literature.
