The chapters cover topics and themes including social movements, friendship, picturebooks, education, equality and authorship. The contributors comment on a range of children's authors including Tom Percival, Walid Taher and Matt de la Peña and draw on ideas from educators, philosophers and sociologists including Nel Noddings, Donna Haraway, Raymond Williams and Zygmunt Bauman. The book brings together international scholars working in the fields of education and children's literature and includes vignettes from authors, publishers, educators, mediators, and children. It offers an interdisciplinary review of hope and its potential to position our thinking and work towards a future within the challenges of the Anthropocene.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com.
