Riassunto

This work provides students of children's literature with a comprehensible and easytouse analytical tool kit, showing through concrete demonstration how each tool might best be used to examine aesthetic rather than educational approaches to children's literature. Contemporary literary theories discussed include semiotics, hermeneutics, structuralism, narratology, psychoanalysis, readerresponse, feminist, and postcolonial theory, each adjusted to suit the specifics of children's literature.
