Opis

Contemporary horror literature for children and young adults has two bold messages for its readers, messages which are often overlooked: adults are untrustworthy, unreliable, and often dangerous, and the monster always wins. Studying this message, this book sheds new light on the problematic message produced by the combination of marketing and books for contemporary young readers.
