Essay from the year 2022 in the subject Literature - General, , course: Children’s Literature, language: English, abstract: Unlike adult’s literature which deals with all issues and themes of society, children’s literature is required to avoid the unpleasant topics such as racism, sexuality, cultural bias, and violence.
