Kid Culture: The Hip Parent's Handbook to Navigating Books, Music, T.V. and Movies in the Digital Age

Product Description

A kid toddling around today has a whole bunch of interesting fictional friends—and every parent should know who they are, because they have a big impact on the way children see the world. Kid Culture provides all the introductions any mom and dad could need. Taking an irreverent yet insightful approach to the far-ranging influences on contemporary youngsters, it leads parents on a guided tour through the often overwhelming universe of kid culture. Start in the book stacks, click through TV and video, turn up the music, and go to the movies again and again. Parents will find the voyage enlightening, entertaining, and ultimately useful in helping both them and their children. Packaged to appeal to the gift market, this is a true survival manual for every parent (and grandparent) who wants in on what’s going on.
