"The time has come for children’s literature to take its place in the curriculum both as a form and as a history. This volume fits here—fits exactly."
—Roderick McGillis, University of Calgary
"This volume fills a huge need. It will enable instructors to offer a comprehensive and coherent survey course or to enhance and supplement more specialized courses. The fact that there is now a Norton anthology dedicated to children’s literature confers important status and legitimacy on the tradition itself."
—Kelly Hager, Simmons College
"The selection of works in The Norton Anthology of Children’s Literature is impressive in its scope. A significant number of texts are included in their entirety, which makes the anthology particularly useful for the classroom. The number of illustrations, including color inserts, is a very attractive feature. Further, the facsimile images of works previously available only in rare book libraries make it a particularly valuable tool."
—Sandra L. Beckett, Brock University
"I am impressed with the depth and breadth of material encompassed in this capacious volume."
—Laura Bates, Indiana State University
"An absolute treasure. A must desk copy for every humanities professor. Students will love it and never let it go!"
