Boys and girls forever: Reflections on children's classics / Lurie, Alison 2003  Book
Lurie, Alison Book
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication London, Chatto & Windus, 2003.
Description 220pRed Spine
Summary/Abstract "Are some of the world's most talented writers of children's books essentially children themselves? In this engaging series of essays, Pulitzer Prize-winning author Alison Lurie considers this theory, exploring children's classics from many eras and relating them to the authors who wrote them, including Louisa May Alcott, creator of Little Women, Dr. Seuss and J.K. Rowling. In analysing these and many other authors, Alison Lurie shows how these gifted writers have used children's literature to transfigure sorrow, nostalgia, and the struggles of their own experience."
