Touch Magic: Fantasy, Faerie and Folklore in the Literature of ChildhoodPhilomel Books, 1981 - 96 pages Jane Yolen's classic call-to-arms advocating the use of fantasy and folklore in children's literature. Yolen argues persuasively that fantasy, folklore, and the realm of story provide children with the necessary tools for facing the world, understanding its ways and capriciousness, indeed, becoming truly human. "I believe that culture begins in the cradle," she writes, "To do without tales and stories and books is to lose humanity's past, is to have no star map for our future." --amazon.com |
