Inhalt:
This volume presents an alternative and corrective history of writing for children in the first half of the 20th century. Between 1910 and 1949 a number of British publishers, writers and illustrators included children's literature in their efforts to make Britain a progressive, egalitarian and modern society. Some came from privileged backgrounds, others from the poorest parts of the poorest cities in the land; some belonged to the metropolitan intelligentsia or bohemia, others were working-class autodidacts, but all sought to use writing for children and young people to create activists, visionaries and leaders among the rising generation.
