'I would certainly recommend this work to anyone interested in the history of childhood and its literatures. The scholarship is exemplary, and I was constantly discovering things that I should have known but did not. The theory is sound and not so obtrusive as to detract from the analysis it supports, and what the arguement lacks in scope it makes up for in detail.'- John Morgenstern, Mount Saint Vincent University
