The most accessible approach yet to childrens literature and narrative theory, Telling Childrens Stories is a comprehensive collection of neverbeforepublished essays by an international slate of scholars that offers a broad yet indepth assessment of narrative strategies unique to childrens literature.The volume is divided into four interrelated sections: Genre Templates and Transformations, Approaches to the Picture Book, Narrators and Implied Readers, and Narrative Time. Mike Caddens introduction considers the links between the various essays and topics, as well as their connections with such issues as metafiction, narrative ethics, focalization, and plotting. Ranging in focus from picture books to novels such as To Kill a Mockingbird, from detective fiction for children to historical tales, from new works such as the Lemony Snicket series to classics like Toms Midnight Garden, these essays explore notions of montage and metaphor, perspective and subjectivity, identification and time. Together, they comprise a resource that will interest and instruct scholars of narrative theory and childrens literature, and that will become critically important to the understanding and development of both fields.
