8 Series Preface The Critical Approaches to Children s Literature series was initiated in 2008 by Kerry Mallan and Clare Bradford. The aim of the series is to identify and publish the best contemporary scholarship and criticism on children s and young adult literature, film and media texts. The series is open to theoretically informed scholarship covering a wide range of critical perspectives on historical and contemporary texts from diverse national and cultural settings. Critical Approaches aims to make a significant contribution to the expanding field of children s literature research by publishing quality books that promote informed discussion and debate about the production and reception of children s literature and its criticism. Kerry Mallan and Clare Bradford ix
9 Acknowledgements This book began as a small idea when I was attending the International Research Society in Children s Literature Congress in Frankfurt in Sitting alone one night in the hotel courtyard, I decided to look occupied and so started to map out an idea for a book about secrets and lies. Along the way from that initial private musing in a country far from home to the publication of this book I have been the recipient of much generosity, encouragement and helpful criticisms. The difficulty in writing acknowledgements is that given the vagaries of memory the list will undoubtedly be incomplete. I should begin by thanking the many colleagues who directly and indirectly offered comment, showed interest or suggested texts to read. These include the Critical Dialogues group at Queensland University of Technology; the conference delegates at the Girls, Texts and Cultures symposium at the University of Winnipeg, the Australasian Children s Literature Association for Research (Canberra), the International Research Society for Children s Literature (QUT, Brisbane) and the ChLA Congress (Simmons College, Boston); the colleagues and students from Beijing Normal University and Tianjin University; and teachers and early childhood professionals from The Gowrie state conference (Brisbane). I have also benefited in countless ways from the counsel, suggestions and perspectives of colleagues and friends. I single out a few names to thank for especially valuable help and support: Rod McGillis for his initial review of the proposal and subsequent critique of the manuscript which helped to sharpen my focus and clarify my ideas; Michelle Dicinoski for her helpful suggestions and insights; and Clare Bradford, my friend and colleague, for her unfailing support of my work. I also express my gratitude to Geraldine Massey, Cherie Allan, Amy Cross, Erica Hateley, Ingrid Johnston and Annette Patterson for their support in various ways: offering sustained interest in the project, recommending texts and assisting with locating elusive sources. I also very much appreciate the support and professionalism of the Palgrave team, especially Paula Kennedy and Sacha Lake. Many thanks to Monica Kendall for her thorough editorial support in seeing this book through to press. And as always, I have benefited in more ways than I can acknowledge from the loving support of my family: Kimberley, Christopher, Helen x
