Playing with Father: Anthony Browne's Picture Books and the Masculine.
Bradford, Clare
Children's Literature in Education, v29 n2 p79-96 Jun 1998
Concentrates on the father figures in Anthony Browne's books and on the ways in which gender ideologies are encoded in works dealing with family relationships, concentrating on "Zoo" and "The Big Baby," but also looking at "Gorilla" and "Piggybook." Finds that the diversity of Browne's work provides children with a variety of insights into notions of gender. (PA)
