A careful examination of various older and modern texts will
enable us to find answers to such questions as Who were
and are the authors, readers, publishers, and supporters of
books for children? What are their educational goals and
aesthetic criteria? What topics are (or are not) treated?
What is the significance in these works of reality and
fantasy?
