Harry Potter and the Overly Long Commute: Trends in Audio Books
By:"Megan E. Friesen"
Published on 2008 by ProQuest
This thesis establishes that audio books are becoming a popular form of encountering texts and therefore deserve to be studied. This examination, however, cannot function through an attempt to classify audio books in binary terms. Instead, a new framework will be created that combines several theoretical approaches in order to discuss the act of experiencing an audio book. No one theory can offer this complex subject the flexibility needed for applicability to different genres or situations. Instead, this framework uses adaptation, remediation, and media theories in its application to Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J.K. Rowling, read by Jim Dale, and A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life's Purpose by Eckhart Tolle, read by the author. These applications will show that this multiple-theory approach allows for the complexities of this subject matter; therefore, it will provide an approach for future studies to examine, not only audio books but any text that occurs in multiple media.

Children's Books in England
By:"Frederick Joseph Harvey Darton"
Published on 2011-11-03 by Cambridge University Press
From fables to fairy tales, romances to nursery rhymes, this highly influential 1932 study analyses the evolution of children's literature. Publisher and writer F. J. Harvey Darton (1878-1936) draws upon his family's involvement in children's publishing since the late eighteenth century, his knowledge of medieval literature, and his own extensive collection of children's books to present the first account of English children's literature seen as a continuous whole. Setting children's books in their historical context, the work reflects much about the history of English social life as well as providing an in-depth perspective on the genre - in the author's words 'a chronicle of the English people in their capacity of parents, guardians and educators of children'. A classic and authoritative study for anyone interested in the history of children's literature, Darton's book remains an invaluable source of information on the genre.
