Description:
Drawing on and expanding their long-running column for Books for Keeps, Darren Chetty and Professor Karen Sands O’Connor trace how Black and racially minoritised characters have been represented in ‘the secret garden’ of British children’s literature from its earliest stages. Examining how children’s literature has both been shaped by, and shaped, prevailing attitudes towards people of colour, they take a thematic approach that offers teachers and parents contextual knowledge that will enrich how books are discussed with children.
