School. Nature. The spaces children occupy, both physically and imaginatively, are never neutral. Instead, they carry social, cultural, and political histories that impose--or attempt to impose--behavioral expectations. Moreover, the spaces identified with childhood reflect and reveal adult expectations of where children \"belong.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The essays in \u003ci\u003eContaining Childhood: Space and Identity in Children's Literature\u003c\/i\u003e explore the multifaceted and dynamic nature of space, as well as the relationship between space and identity in children's literature. Contributors to the volume address such questions as: What is the nature of that relationship? What happens to the spaces associated with childhood over time? How do children conceptualize and lay claim to their own spaces? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The book features essays on popular and lesser-known children's fiction from North America and Great Britain, including works like \u003ci\u003eThe Hate U Give\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eHis Dark Materials\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Giver \u003c\/i\u003equartet, and \u003ci\u003eShadowshaper\u003c\/i\u003e. Adopting a multidisciplinary approach in their analysis, contributors draw upon varied scholarly areas such as philosophy, race, class, and gender studies, among others. Without reducing the issues to any singular theory or perspective, each piece provides insight into specific treatments of space in specific periods of time, thereby affording scholars a greater appreciation of the diverse spatial patterns in children's literature.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDanielle Russell\u003c\/b\u003e is associate professor of English at Glendon College (York University).
