Product Description

Review

"This book is a compelling and essential read for all of us who teach and share our lives with children."--"The English and Media Magazine

Product Description

These essays by British and American writers, including Jack Zipes, Martin Barker and Maire Messenger Davies, explore such questions as: what is the appeal of "Ninja Turtles" or "My Little Pony"? What are the "Home Alone" movies really about? And does Disney liberate or enslave the imagination?
