About the book

"Twice-Told Children's Tales combines scholarly essays on the childhood reading of writers for adults with specially commissioned essays and anecdotes on childhood reading by major children's book authors, novelists, and poets. This collection demonstrates how literary works once so important to a child can be used by the adult writer to create something new yet old, to use the tradition to become part of the tradition, as T. S. Eliot says, to create something recognizable but transformed."--BOOK JACKET.
