Empire's Children cover

Empire's Children looks at works at by Rudyard Kipling, Frances Hodgson Burnett, E. Nesbit, Hugh Lofting, A.A. Milne, and Arthur Ransome for the ways these writers consciously and unconsciously used the metaphors of empire in their writing for children.

"Kutzer's grasp of postcolonial theory and her careful readings of the texts make this a superb and influential study. Highly recommended; all libraries." -- Choice
