Literature For Children and Adolescents

Comments

Comments: Examines how our perception has evolved with regard to what constitutes a children’s book. Discussion topics include how the concept of “childhood” has changed, and why the latter half of the 20th century has been dubbed the “half-century of children’s literature”. Two books published sixty years apart – Peter Rabbit and Where the Wild Things Are – provide a comparison for discussion. Featured author: Leo Lionni
