Abstract:
The State Publishing House of the Lithuanian SSR and some private publishing houses published children's books during the period from June 1940 until June 1941. They published 49 children’s books in 277,500 copies. During the German occupation, children's books were published in Moscow, where the State Publishing House operated, and some were published in Lithuania. After the end of the war in 1945, new publishing houses were established in Lithuania, and all of them published books for children. The majority of children's books were published by the State Publishing House of Fiction Literatur

Abstract:
In this paper, the authors present brief reviews of 20 works of children's fiction in which a character stutters. The purposes of the reviews were (a) to provide speech-language clinicians with synopses of most of the currently available children's fiction involving characters who stutter, and (b) to explore how the authors of children's fiction portray certain aspects of stuttering, such as symptomatology, causation, and treatment.

Abstract:
Twenty-first-century children's literature research has witnessed a material turn in strong response to the 1990s perception of childhood and the fictional child as social constructions. Cultural theories have generated fruitful approaches to children's fiction through the lenses of gender, class, race and sexual orientation, and psychoanalytically oriented theories have explored ways of representing childhood as a projection of (adult) interiority, but the physical existence of children as represented in their fictional worlds has been obscured by constructed social and psychological hierarch

Abstract:
A work of fiction made by a child is an extraordinary gift. The child's ability to imagine and put that imagination into a series of stories is an invaluable value of the archipelago's wealth. A work made by children aged 6-12 years became one of the riches of Indonesian literature which eventually developed and was called children's literature. Children's literature is rich in values and messages. Children's literature is also rich in directive functions. This study found that in children's literature there are many directive functions conveyed by the author through his work. The various dire

Abstract:
This article examines children's novels and short stories published in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries that feature bushfires and the ceremonial fires associated with Indigenous Australians. It suggests that British children's novels emphasise the horror of bushfires and the human struggle involved in conquering them. In contrast, Australian-authored children's fictions represent less anthropocentric understandings of the environment. New attitudes toward the environment are made manifest in Australian women's fiction including J. M. Whitfield's ‘The Spirit of the Bushfire’ (

Abstract:
Since the turn of the twenty first century, Gothic has emerged as one of the most popular forms in which to write for children. Although children’s literature critics and educational professionals were once dubious about the value of scary stories for children, postmillennial Gothic has begun to receive critical praise as well as mass market popularity. This thesis explores an emergent critical discourse that champions children’s Gothic alongside a variety of examples of the form. I argue that postmillennial children’s fiction employs metafictional reflexivity and explicit intertextuality, ope

Abstract:
British Children’s Literature has a long and distinguished history. In fact it could be argued that in the late seventeenth and increasingly in the eighteenth century, Britain took the lead in developing a new kind of literature especially designed for children. The Puritans were the first to recognise the potential for material specifically targeted at children as a means of reforming the personal piety of all individuals, including children. As a result, educational, instructional and religious books for children began to appear followed later by books retelling myths, legends and oral tales

The focus of this study is a trend in British children’s literature concerning the ancientness of British landscape, with what I argue is a Neo-Romantic sensibility. Neo-Romanticism is marked by highly subjective viewpoints on the countryside, and I argue that it illuminates our understanding of post-war children’s literature, particularly in what is often called its Second Golden Age. Through discussion of four generally overlooked authors, each of importance to this formative publishing era, I aim to explore certain aspects of the Second Golden Age children’s literature establishment.

Studies in narrative psychology, literary theory and children's responses to reading also provide the empirical and theoretical background for this qualitative enquiry that compares a number of developing readers' responses to fiction in a school and classroom context. Focusing on the features that distinguish their responses to questions about moral choice and virtue in a range of stories, the thesis explores a m

The results reveal register-specific recurrent linguistic patterns which play a role in the constitution of the fictional world of children’s literature, specifying its temporal and spatial characteristics, and relating to the communication among the protagonists

These fearful experiences develop into a psychosomatic expression of the children’s experiences, emotions and feelings. They are unable to process this emotional burden and react with a somatic disorder. The children’s lie is an occasion to try to look into the world of the child in his growing up process from the 3rd to the 7th year. In this period of development, many new impressions, observati

While every family is unique with diverse backgrounds and needs, we hope this tool sparks discussion about how all healing families can be supported whoever they are.
