Copertina di Vivian Yenika-Agbaw: Representing Africa in Children''s Literature (ePUB)

The book focuses on contemporary children’s and young adult literature set in Africa, examining issues regarding colonialism, the politics of representation, and the challenges posed to both ‘insiders’ and ‘outsiders’ writing about Africa for children.
