With refreshing independence, Jack Zipes contends that children are best served neither by the current polemics of the religious right or the radical left. It is a forthright and engaging book.
Argues that popular literature for children published during the 19th and 20th centuries are primarily stories that adults tell children and reflect current values and societal norms, which curtail children''s freedom and homogenizes them.
