Create an essay about the picture of childhood you get from these classic 20th century childrens literature and lore.

This is an assignment for my literature class in which I would have to answer 4 questions in essay form. The teacher stated that she is interested in substance not length but that the answers should be more than 2 paragraphs and should be detailed, specific response-essays using as much material as needed. Document the work by adding a work cited page. Also, it is important and necessary to cover every literary text (10 texts), 4 items of childrens lore (attached), two toys (attached), and all four concepts from Griswold (Lightness, smallness, aliveness, and scariness). All of these should be met; however, not necessarily for each question but should be found throughout the entire 4 questions. For example, for q1- we could include 3literary texts, an item of childrens lore, and concept from Griswold q2-3literary texts and a toy, an item of childrens lore, and concept from Griswold q3-3 literary texts and a toy, an item of childrens lore, and concept from Griswold q4-1literary text, item of childrens lore, and concept from Griswold.
