Alice to the Lighthouse is the first and only full-length study of the relation between childrens literature and writing for adults. Lewis Carrolls Alice books created a revolution in writing for and about children which had repercussions not only for subsequent childrens writers - such as Stevenson, Kipling, Nesbit, Frances Hodgson Burnett and Mark Twain - but for Virginia Woolf and her generation. Virginia Woolfs celebration of writing as play rather than preaching is the twin of the Post-Impressionist art championed by Roger Fry. Dusinberre connects books for children in the late nineteenth century with developments in education and psychology, all of which feed into the modernism of the early twentieth century.
