Bloody Murder: The Homicide Tradition in Children's Literature
Abate, Michelle Ann (Ohio State University)
Given the long-standing belief that children ought to be shielded from disturbing life events, it is surprising to see how many stories for kids involve killing. This title offers a study of this pervasive theme of murder in children's literature. It adds to the body of inquiry into America's ongoing fascination with violent crime.
