Book excerpt: By focusing on the children’s book business of the long eighteenth-century, this book argues that the thinking, knowing children of the Enlightenment are models for the technologically-connected, socially-conscious children of the twenty-first. The increasingly obsolete images of Romantic innocent and ignorant children are bracketed between the two periods.
