Another book of the conference - in this case at Le Sainte Union, Southampton, in June 1994. Lively and varied contributions from, amongst others, Jean Webb, Nigel Hand, Pat Pinsent ... and the ubiquitous Peter Hunt who's much surer of himself in this company. A 'coming-of-age', though? Not, alas, till researchers into children's literature stop swooning over currently fashion¬able approaches and subject them instead to an analysis that's beady-eyed rather than starry-eyed.
