How Picturebooks Work
How Picturebooks Work is an innovative and engaging look at the interplay between text and image in picturebooks. The authors explore picturebooks as a specific medium or genre in literature and culture, one that prepares children for other media of communication, and they argue that picturebooks may be the most influential media of all in the socialization and representation of children. Spanning an international range of children's books, this book examine such favorites as Curious George and Frog and Toad Are Friends, along with the works of authors and illustrators including Maurice Sendak and Tove Jansson, among others. With 116 illustrations, How Picturebooks Work offers the student of children's literature a new methodology, new theories, and a new set of critical tools for examining the picturebook form.

The Philosophical Child
What does it mean to be good? Why do people die? What is friendship? Children enter the world full of questions and wrestle with deep, thoughtful issues, even if they do not always wonder them aloud. Many parents have the desire to discuss philosophical ideas with their children, but are unsure how to do so. The Philosophical Child offers parents guidance on how to gently approach philosophical questions with children of all ages. Jana Mohr Lone argues that for children to mature emotionally, they must develop their desire and ability to think abstractly about themselves and their experiences. This book suggests easy ways that parents can engage with their children's philosophical questions and help them develop their "philosophical selves."
Postmodern Picturebooks
Over the past 15 years, there has been a pronounced trend toward a particular type of picturebook that many would label "postmodern." Postmodern picturebooks have stretched our conventional notion of what constitutes a picturebook, as well as what it means to be an engaged reader of these texts. The international researchers and scholars included in this compelling collection of work critically examine and discuss postmodern picturebooks, and reflect upon their unique contributions to both the field of children’s literature and to the development of new literacies for child, adolescent, and adult readers.

Zweedse en Zweedstalige Finse auteurs in Nederlandse vertaling 1491-2007. Een bibliografie / Svenska och finlandssvenska författare i nederländsk översättning 1491-2007. En bibliografi
Het algemene beeld van Zweedse literatuur in het Nederlandstalig gebied is die van Pippi Langkous, een creatie van Astrid Lindgren, die van politiecommissaris Wallander van Henning Mankell en Lisbet Salander uit de Millenium reeks van Stieg Larsson. Slaat men Zweedse en Zweedstalige Finse auteurs in Nederlandse vertaling 1491-2007. Een bibliografie. Svenska och finlandssvenska författare i nederländsk översättning 1491-2007. En bibliografi open, dan ziet men in een oogopslag dat er heel wat meer auteurs uit het Zweeds in het Nederlands door de eeuwen heen zijn vertaald. Door bibliografieën als deze in het onderzoek naar de cultuurbemiddeling te betrekken wordt het mogelijk een completer beeld te krijgen van vertaalde buitenlandse literatuur. Deze bibliografie geeft samen met de bibliografie van Diederik Grit over de Deense letteren in Nederland en Vlaanderen (1986) en de bibliografie over Noorse literatuur in Nederlandse vertaling van Raf De Saeger (2013, ook in deze serie) een bijzonder overzicht van de culturele contacten tussen Nederland en Scandinavië.
