Diversity in children's literature : a historical-comparative perspective

Includes bibliographical references.

Children's literature has always been an important vehicle for the inclusion of all diversity. However, the potential inherent in children's literature to give voice and space to such diversity has not always been exploited appropriately. How has diversity found a place in children's literature in the past? How does it find space today? How has children's literature helped to represent contemporary reality, a reality in which all diversities should have recognition? The volume intends to analyze and deconstruct the concept of "diversity" and its multiple implications of gender, culture, religion, identity, disability, etc. in the history of education, as well as highlight national and international best practices, future directions and developments in this field of research [Publisher's text].
