Notes

1 Jenkins, National Character, 125. Subsequent page references to this text are included in parentheses in the body of the article.

2 Many of these studies of “first world” children's literatures examine the issue of empire, including Kutzer's Empire's Children, in the same Routledge series as the books under review.

3 McGillis's Voices of the Other is part of the same series as the two books under review. Other presses have produced analyses of postcolonial children's literature, including Wilfred Laurier University Press (Bradford's Unsettling Narratives).

4 One chapter of the 1998 Greenwood Press Critical Perspectives on Postcolonial African Children's and Young Adult Literature (Flockemann's “Stories of Passage, Stories of Crossings”) does analyze South African children's literature. Routledge will soon publish a third book on African children's literature in their series: Maddy and MacCann's Neo-Imperialism in Children's Literature about Africa.

5 Bhabha, Location of Culture, 86.

6 Yenika-Agbaw, Representing Africa in Children's Literature, vviii. Subsequent page references to this text are included in parenthese in the body of the article.
