Of the many themes occurring in young adult literature, one that
bears more extensive exploration is the adolescent-animal
connection. Although substantial critical commentary has addressed
children's animal stories and animals in adult fiction, very few
studies have been devoted to adolescent-animal encounters. In
Animals in Young Adult Fiction, Walter Hogan examines several
hundred novels and stories to explore the ways in which animals are
represented in these works. In additional to providing an
historical survey, Hogan looks at both realistic fiction and
speculative works, including fantasy, supernatural, horror, and
science fiction. Hogan reviews stories that feature wild animal
encounters, stories centered on relationships with horses, dogs,
and other working and performing animals, and those featuring
relationships with pets. Drawing upon established scholarship, this
book examines human-animal relationships from multiple angles,
making it an invaluable resource for librarians, teachers, and
students of children's and young adult literature.
