children's literature and American political conservatism The Rutgers series in childhood studies
(0 reviews)
Raising Your Kids Right dispels the dismissive attitude that narratives for young readers are unworthy of serious political study. Michelle Ann Abate examines a variety of texts that offer information, ideology, and even instructions on how to raise kids right, not just figuratively, but politically. Highlighting the works of William Bennett, Lynne Cheney, Bill O'Reilly, and others, she brings together such diverse fields as cultural studies, literary criticism, political science, childhood studies, brand marketing, and the cult of celebrity. - Publisher.
