From the forests of the tales of the Brothers Grimm to Enid
Blyton's The Faraway Tree, from the flowers of Cicely May Barker's
fairies to the treehouse in Andy Griffith and Terry Denton's
popular 13-Storey Treehouse series, trees and other plants have
been enduring features of stories for children and young adults.
Plants act as gateways to other worlds, as liminal spaces, as
markers of permanence and change, and as metonyms of childhood and
adolescence. This anthology is the first compilation devoted
entirely to analysis of the representation of plants in children's
and young adult literatures, reflecting the recent surge of
interest in cultural plant studies within the environmental
humanities. Mapping out and presenting an internationally inclusive
view of plant representation in texts for children and young
adults, the volume includes contributions examining European,
American, Australian, and Asian literatures and contributes to the
research fields of ecocriticism, critical plant studies, and the
study of children's and young adult literatures.
