"Fantasy Literature for Children and Young Adults will help teachers
and students of literature develop their own understandings of this
broad genre in order to evaluate and promote the joy of fantasy in
their classrooms." "Assuming that readers have no special knowledge
of fantasy literature but some previous exposure to the study of
literature for children and young adults, this book focuses on texts
that illustrate three particular types of fantasy literature:
fairy/folktale; mixed fantasy (including travel, transformation,
talking animals, and magic; and heroic-ethical. These discussions are
then supported by examples of representative authors, critics, and
theorists."--BOOK JACKET.
