“All the contributions make a powerful case both for empowering children and young people as researchers capable of generating knowledge about themselves and for the potential of intergenerational relations in academia. Children’s literature scholars willing to contemplate possible synergies between their work and childhood studies … will certainly find it an invaluable source of guidelines on how to pursue an academic practice that is capable of creating a real impact on the lives of both children and adults.” (Justyna Deszcz-Tryhubczak, IRSCL Reviews, irscl.com, 2015)
