Review Quotes:
"An extremely useful and comprehensive guide that addresses the critical considerations and practicalities of being a children's literature scholar in the 21st century." --Amy Webster, Lincoln Bishop University, UK
"This book is a truly unique treasure trove for emerging scholars who want to establish a career in children's literature research. It is clear about the stakes, honest about the challenges, inspiring in the possibilities it highlights, practical in its advice and moving in the personal testimonies that various scholars have shared. I wish this book had been around when I was starting. For more senior scholars, it reminds us of why we are in this field and how we can support our more junior colleagues." --- Vanessa Joosen, Professor of English literature and children's literature, University of Antwerp, Belgium
