Toys – a celebrated part of childhood and key figures in children's imaginative play – have a fantastic history of heroism in print and on film. In this collection of essays, literary scholars from around the globe examine the roles toys play as protectors of the child they love, as heroes of their own stories, or as champions for the greater good.

Toys--those celebrated childhood cohorts and lead actors in children''s imaginative play--have a fantastic history of heroism in fiction. From teddy bears that guard sleeping babies to plastic soldiers and cowboys who lay siege to wooden block castles, toys are often the heroes of the stories children inspire authors to tell.

In this collection of new essays, scholars from a great range of disciplines examine fictional toys as protectors of the children they love, as heroes of their own stories, and as champions for the greater good in the writings of A.A. Milne, Hans Christian Andersen, William Joyce, John Lasseter and many others.
