  • The Borrowers a Culture of Life Studies Book Review
    TEACHING THE CULTURE OF LIFE: The Borrowers A Culture of Life Studies book review ABOUT THE AUTHOR Mary Norton is the British author of The Borrowers series as well as the two-book series Bedknobs and Broomsticks which became a classic The Borrowers Disney film in 1971. Readers who enjoyed The Borrowers may also by Mary Norton (1952) enjoy other books in the same series: The Borrowers Afield, The GENRE: Children’s Classics, Borrowers Afloat, The Borrowers Aloft , and The Borrowers Avenged , Fantasy all of which deal with similar themes. LENGTH: 180 pages Recommended for ages 8 –12 STORY SUMMARY The Borrowers—Pod, Homily, and Arrietty Clock—are small persons who live under the kitchen in an old house. In order to survive, they “borrow” food and small objects from around the house. Their greatest fear is being seen by a “human bean” because then they would have to emigrate (or leave) to protect themselves. Arrietty, the smallest Borrower, longs to go outside and see the world. When her father takes her borrowing for the first time, she is spotted by a human bean, a boy living in the house, but instead of being frightened, she makes a friend. This friendship, however, leads to trouble and possible danger from the other humans in the house. The boy begins “borrowing” many things from the doll’s house and giving them to the Borrowers through a loose plank in the kitchen. One night, Mrs. Driver, the housekeeper, discovers the Borrowers through the floor and sends for the rat-catcher to get rid of them.

  • IT WAS Mrs May Who First Told Me About Them
    CHAPTER ONE T WAS Mrs May who fi rst told me about them. I No, not me. How could it have been me – a wild, untidy, self- willed little girl who stared with angry eyes and was said to crunch her teeth? Kate, she should have been called. Yes, that was it – Kate. Not that the name matters much either way: she barely comes into the story. Mrs May lived in two rooms in Kate’s parents’ house in London; she was, I think, some kind of relation. Her bedroom was on the fi rst fl oor, and her sitting- room was a room which, as part of the house, was called ‘the breakfast- room’. Now breakfast- rooms are all right in the morning when the sun streams in on the toast and marmalade, but by afternoon they seem to vanish a little and 1 22ND_9780141354866_TheBorrowers.inddND_9780141354866_TheBorrowers.indd 1 119/04/149/04/14 11:09:09 PPMM Mary Norton to fi ll with a strange silvery light, their own twilight; there is a kind of sadness in them then, but as a child it was a sadness Kate liked. She would creep in to Mrs May just before tea- time and Mrs May would teach her to crochet. Mrs May was old, her joints were stiff, and she was – not strict exactly, but she had that inner certainty which does instead. Kate was never ‘wild’ with Mrs May, nor untidy, nor self- willed; and Mrs May taught her many things besides crochet: how to wind wool into an egg- shaped ball; how to run- and- fell and plan a darn; how to tidy a drawer and to lay, like a blessing, above the contents, a sheet of rustling tissue against the dust.

  • Pauline Baynes
    PAULINE BAYNES Chapin Library · Williams College October & November 1999 PAULINE BAYNES is not a household name, yet her work is widely known and loved. Mention that she drew the original pictures for the popular Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis, and she is recognized at once. She is most closely associ- ated with Narnia, and with books by J.R.R. Tolkien such as Farmer Giles of Ham and The Adventures of Tom Bombadil; but she has done much more in her distinguished career, which has spanned more than half a century. She has produced hundreds of pictures in a variety of styles, for books and magazines of all sorts and by many authors, as well as ephemera ranging from Christmas cards to biscuit tins. Many of the books to which she has contributed have been children’s books – not least because books for children offer so many opportunities for embellishment – yet she is by no means solely an illustrator for children. She considers herself fore- most a decorator and designer, rather than an illustrator; in fact she is all of these together, though she is indeed notably skilled at pro- ducing decorative designs, and many of her pictorial illustrations have decorative frames. All of her art is meticulously composed and drawn (in pen and ink) or painted (in gouache), often with flowing, rhythmic lines that suggest movement and life. The Chapin Library is pleased to present this exhibition of some fifty books illustrated by Pauline Baynes, lent from a private local collection. All, for this occasion, are children’s books, selected in honour of and as the Library’s contribution to “Words Are Wonderful,” a celebration of children’s literature in Williamstown during the week of – October .

  • Imperial and National Space in British Children's Fantasy
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Newcastle University eTheses There and Back Again: Imperial and National Space in British Children’s Fantasy Aishwarya Subramanian Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of PhD School of English Literature, Language and Linguistics, Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences Newcastle University May 2018 Abstract This thesis examines the construction of space in a series of canonical British children’s fantasy novels published over the period of decolonisation. The end of empire necessitated a dramatic shift in the understanding of what constituted the territorial boundaries of “Britain,” and the location of national identity. Though the centrality of empire to nineteenth and early- twentieth century children’s literature has been studied at length, until now little attention has been paid to the postimperial context of the twentieth-century British children’s canon. Through an analysis of texts published between 1930 and 1980, the thesis argues that these novels utilise the fantasy genre to create heterotopic spaces—connected to but not of the dominant British space—within which changing ideas of “imperial” and “national” space can be negotiated. Organising the texts chronologically, I demonstrate a shift in focus over the period, from an outward-facing conception of British space as imperial space, to a domestic and inward-facing one. However, I trace the presence of both impulses (“there” and “back again”) in each of the texts under discussion, showing that the two are often intertwined, and that the fantastic spaces analysed here frequently slip between or exist simultaneously in both registers.
