　　Some of the most innovative and spell-binding literature has

been written for young people, but only recently has academic study

embraced its range and complexity. This Companion offers a

state-of-the-subject survey of English-language children's

literature from the seventeenth century to the present. With

discussions ranging from eighteenth-century moral tales to modern

fantasies by J. K. Rowling and Philip Pullman, the Companion

illuminates acknowledged classics and many more neglected works.

Its unique structure means that equal consideration can be given to

both texts and contexts. Some chapters analyse key themes and major

genres, including humour, poetry, school stories, and picture

books. Others explore the sociological dimensions of children's

literature and the impact of publishing practices. Written by

leading scholars from around the world, this Companion will be

essential reading for all students and scholars of children's

literature, offering original readings and new research that

reflects the latest developments in the field.

· Wide coverage of children's literature in the English-speaking

world since the seventeenth century · Explores the important themes

of the genre as well as how to study children's books · Includes

illustrations, chronology and guide to further reading
