Summary
Throughout the modern era, the figure of the child has consistently reflected adult concerns about industrialisation, consumerism and technology. Drawing on case studies of Wallace and Gromit, Teletubbies, Horrible Histories and more, this book explores how media products for children navigate understandings of childhood and child audiences.
