Secrets, Lies and Children’s Fiction Paperback / softback
by K. Mallan
Part of the Critical Approaches to Children's Literature series
Paperback / softback
Description
Many children learn from a young age to tell the truth.
They also learn that some lies are necessary in order to survive in a world that paradoxically values truth-telling, but practises deception.
This book examines this paradox by considering how deception is often a necessary means of survival for individuals, families, governments, and animals.
