Children's Literature and Intergenerational Relationships:
Encounters of the Playful Kind explores ways in which children's
literature becomes the object and catalyst of play that brings
younger and older generations closer to one another. Providing
examples from diverse cultural and historical contexts, this
collection argues that children's texts promote intergenerational
play through the use of literary devices and graphic formats and
that they may prompt joint play practices in the real world. The
book offers a distinctive contribution to children's literature
scholarship by shifting critical attention away from the difference
and conflict between children and adults to the exploration of
inter-age interdependencies as equally crucial aspects of human
life, presenting a new perspective for all who research and work
with children's culture in times of global aging.
