Continuum has repackaged some of its key academic backlist titles to make them available at a more affordable price. These reissues will have new ISBNs, distinctive jackets and strong branding. They cover a range of subject areas that have a continuing student sale and make great supplementary reading more accessible. A profound examination of personal development in literature for children and adolescents.
The reader is reflectively and imaginatively involved in the dilemmas and identities of the characters. This dual focus of growth in the text and in being engaged with the text depends on self-consciousness, and parallels theh experience of teh reviewer with this enlightening book". -- Eduacational review May 2006
