| Summary: | This book explores the adaptation of children's metafictions, including works such as Inkheart, The Invention of Hugo Cabret and the Harry Potter series. Not only are the plot devices of books and reading explored on screen in these adaptations, but so is the nature of transmedial adaptation itself, the act of representing one work of art in another medium. It involves analyzing the 'work' done by children's metafiction and the experience of reading it. |
