Fiction at school for educational purposes: What opportunities are students given to act as moral subjects?

• When Simone de Beauvoir claims (1982), "one is not born but, rather, becomes a woman", the same could be said about children in relation to childhood and children's literature. In particular, textbooks for children, including extracts from children's literature, tell us how children are supposed to become children by adopting educational aims. In fact, extracts from children's literature in textbooks could be said to evoke actions emanating from ideas in the texts of what children should be like. © The Author(s) 2017. All rights reserved.
