The Water Babies and Alice are compared with Brer Rabbit and Peter Pan, Disney and Dr Seuss are considered alongside A.A. Milne and Beatrix Potter, and special attention is paid to the significance of Fairies, Brownies and Bogeymen in the child's development.\n\nLavishly illustrated book brings to life in stimulating and thought-provoking manner the child's world of yesterday and today, reviving half-forgotten memories and renewing lost dreams.\n\nFront jacket: Drawing by \u003cstrong\u003eKate Greenaway\u003c\/strong\u003e.\n\n\u003cb\u003eOut Of Print.
