Description

Explore the development of a unique Canadian voice through the lens of children's stories. Following Confederation in 1867, Canada sought a literary way to express its new identity and national needs. This book examines how children's literature served as a primary medium for this expression. As a tool for both education and entertainment, these works often reflected the political, economic, and social concerns of a growing country. The text looks at how literature was used to address national unity and the desire for an independent voice. By studying a large variety of materials, readers can understand how nursery rhymes and stories helped shape the perception of a new nation during a period of significant change.
