Wild things : the joy of reading children's literature as an adult / Bruce Handy. by Handy, Bruce, author. New York : Simon & Schuster, 2017. Subjects Children's literature -- History and criticism.   Books and reading. ISBN:  9781451609950 (hardback) : 1451609957 (hardback) Description:  xxiii, 307 pages : illustrations ; 22 cm Edition:  First Simon & Schuster hardcover edition. Requests:  0 Summary:  "In Wild Things, Vanity Fair contributing editor Bruce Handy revisits the classics of every American childhood, from fairy tales to The Very Hungry Caterpillar, and explores the back stories of their creators, using context and biography to understand how some of the most insightful, creative, and witty authors and illustrators of their times created their often deeply personal masterpieces. Along the way, Handy learns what The Cat in the Hat says about anarchy and absentee parenting, which themes are shared by The Runaway Bunny and Portnoy's Complaint, and why Ramona Quimby is as true an American icon as Tom Sawyer or Jay Gatsby."--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 809.89282 Ha Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Nonfiction 809.89282 Ha Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult Nonfiction 809.89282 Ha Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 809.89282 Ha Checked In Add Copy to MyList North Kohala Public Library Adult Nonfiction 809.89282 Ha Checked In Add Copy to MyList Pahoa P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 809.89282 Ha Checked In Add Copy to MyList Nanakuli Public Library Adult Nonfiction 809.89282 Ha Checked In Add Copy to MyList
