Shows how the acceptance of psychoanalysis owes a notable debt to the rise of "kid lit"
Review Quotes:
"This canny and original study is far more searching, wide-ranging, and fun than its modest title suggests. Kenneth B. Kidd not only analyzes but somehow evokes for us the way the child and stories told about her drift through our dreams, literature, and culture, giving form to our finest aspirations and darkest nightmares. An essential, generous, deeply-informed book." --James Kincaid, University of Southern California
