Description:All too often, attention is paid only to those children's novels that were written in English, with non-English-language works being passed over and neglected. "Beyond Babar: The European Tradition in Children's Literature" examines eleven of the most celebrated European children's novels in substantial, critical essays written by well-known international scholars. This approach provides a comprehensive discussion of the selected works from a variety of theoretical perspectives. Each essay offers a critical introduction to the text that can serve as a point of departure for literary scholars, professors of children's literature, primary and secondary school teachers, and librarians who are interested in texts that cross languages and cultures.
