While Little Women continues to gain popular and critical attention, Alcott's wider works for children have largely been consigned to history. This book therefore investigates Alcott's lesser-known children's texts to reconsider critical assumptions about childhood in her works and in literature more widely. Kristina West investigates the trend towards reading Alcott's life into her works; readings of gender and sexuality, race, disability, and class; the sentimental domestic; portrayals of Transcendentalism and American education; and adaptations of these works. Analyzing Alcott as a writer for twenty-first-century children, West considers Alcott's place in the children's canon and how new media and fan fiction impact readings of her works today. 410 0$aCritical Approaches to Children's Literature,$x2753-0833 606 $aChildren's literature 606 $aLiterature, Modern$y19th century 606 $aAmerica$xLiteratures 606 $aChildren's Literature 606 $aNineteenth-Century Literature 606 $aNorth American Literature 615 0$aChildren's literature. 615 0$aLiterature, Modern 615 0$aAmerica$xLiteratures. 615 14$aChildren's Literature. 615 24$aNineteenth-Century Literature. 615 24$aNorth American Literature. 676 $a809.93352054 676 $a809.89282 700 $aWest$b Kristina$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0938172 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483330503321 996 $aLouisa May Alcott and the Textual Child$92128321 997 $aUNINA
