This book is about the implications of novels for young readers
that tell their stories by alternating between different narrative
lines focused on different characters. It asks: if you make sense
of fiction by identifying with one main character, how do you
handle two or more of them? Do novels with alternating narratives
diverge from longstanding conventions and represent a significant
change in literature for young readers? If not, how do these novels
manage to operate within the parameters of those conventions? This
book considers answers to these questions by means of a series of
close readings that explore the structural, educational and
ideological implications of a variety of American, British,
Canadian and Australian novels for children and for young adults.
