Ethical Functions of Anthropomorphic Children’s Literature and the Child-Animal Bond
Author : Dr. Gurpreet Kour and Rashmi Siriya
Abstract :
Anthropomorphism has been a constant and enduring element of children's media for the past 100 years. Kenneth Grahame's The Wind in the Willows, a classic illustration of how anthropomorphism is employed in children's literature to exclude age, gender, and race from a work, is credited with starting this practice. Examining how The Wind in the Willows and the anthropomorphic children's fiction genre are able to communicate complex moral and ideological concepts to a young audience is my mission.
Additionally, I have examine how children's unique and dynamic relationship with animals, as well as how often they typically consume that media, contribute to the success of these themes' translation.
