Marketing Chinese Children's Books : Paratext and the Politics of Authorship
An exploration of the marketing, presentation and construction of popular Chinese children's authors for their youthful audience, parents and teachers, Marketing Chinese Children's Books surveys the internal and international dissemination of children’s books and of international influences in the marketing of children’s literature. Focusing on the paratextual elements of contemporary Chinese literature written for children such as author photographs, this book reveals the political constraints on the position of popular children's author in the People's Republic of China after the Cultural Revolution. Taking the publications of Cao Wenxuan (the first Chinese recipient of the Hans Christian Anderson Award), Yang Hongying, Shen Shixi and Gerelchimeg Black Crane as case studies, Frances Weightman considers how the marketing of these authors presents them as academic and political authorities to be emulated and trusted, how they are demonstrative of the commercialism in children's literature and what they expose about the different ways in which popular authors are promoted based on their gender, nationality and ethnicity.Also surveying the uses of animals in Chinese literature and the issues relating to language and translation when these works are promoted throughout the West, this is a timely study of the construct of authorship coinciding with the rapid expansion of children's literature publishing in China and its reception on the world stage.

E-books or printed books?
The choice between e-books and printed books ultimately depends on personal preference. E-books offer convenience and portability, allowing readers to carry multiple books in one device. They also often provide features like adjustable font size and built-in dictionaries. On the other hand, printed books offer a tactile and sensory experience that many readers enjoy, and they don't require a screen or battery. Some people also find it easier to retain information from printed books. Ultimately, both formats have their own advantages, and the decision between the two comes down to individual preferences and needs.
-
Are e-books abridged?
E-books can be either abridged or unabridged, just like physical books. Some e-books are published in their complete, original form, while others may be abridged versions that have been condensed or edited for various reasons. It's important for readers to check the description or details of an e-book to determine whether it is an abridged version or the full, original text.

Are books or e-books more sustainable?
Books are generally considered more sustainable than e-books. While e-books do not require physical materials like paper and ink, they have a significant environmental impact due to the energy and resources required to produce and dispose of electronic devices. Additionally, the production and disposal of e-readers contribute to electronic waste, which can be harmful to the environment. On the other hand, books can be made from sustainably sourced materials and are often recyclable. Therefore, in terms of sustainability, books are generally the more environmentally friendly option.

Can e-books be repaired?
E-books cannot be physically repaired like traditional books, as they are digital files stored on electronic devices. However, if an e-book file becomes corrupted or damaged, it may be possible to repair it by using software tools designed for file recovery. In some cases, the e-book may need to be re-downloaded or re-purchased if the file is beyond repair. It is always a good idea to back up your e-books to prevent loss or damage.
