A richly expanded edition of the classic call-to-arms. Yolen argues perceptively that fantasy, folklore, and the realm of story provide our children with a "star map for our future". Six new essays tender fresh perspectives on the morality of fairy tales, time travel, the definition of story and, of course, why such themes are essential to the development of today's children.Yolen, Jane is the author of 'Touch Magic: Fantasy, Faerie and Folklore in the Literature of Childhood' with ISBN 9780399208300 and ISBN 0399208305.
