“It is a diverse and engaging collection of articles from a wide variety of scholars currently working in the field. … Seriality and Texts explores a virgin territory in the field of children’s cultural studies with enthusiasm and aplomb. It encourages us to reflect on the value of serialised texts and the rewards inherent in re-reading. … collection also succeeds in demonstrating the importance of taking children’s serialised literature seriously, both as a cultural document and as an art form.” (Ben Screech, International Research in Children's Literature, Vol. 9 (1), July, 2016)
