Focusing on questions of space and locale in children's literature, this collection explores how metaphorical and physical space can create landscapes of power, knowledge, and identity in texts from the early nineteenth century to the present. "This is a very useful addition to children's literature scholarship, with an impressive breadth of material." --Newsletter of the Children's Books History Society "This robust anthology models an international and interdisciplinary conceptual framework for a range of critical fields, including childhood studies, cultural studies, and children's geographies." --Erin Spring, University of Lethbridge, Alberta, The Lion and the Unicorn
