Description
Monsters Under the Bed critically investigates early years writing, exploring the cult and culture of childhood in fiction and non-fictional writing. This accessible text offers ideas, critical advice, and a wealth of research to help academics, researchers, and students examine fundamental questions in writing for 'early years' children.
Andrew Melrose's book dynamically explores picture books, literacy, and writing for early years children, with a focus on child-centred culture, communication, and media. The text includes checkpoints to encourage readers to reflect on critically creative and creatively critical development, making it an indispensable resource for critics, writers, students, and teacher training.
