The Empire's Old Clothes: What the Lone Ranger, Babar, and Other Innocent Heroes Do to Our Minds

This made a real impact upon me in the 1980s. Dorfman is fascinating.
The perspective of a Chilean expat, a veteran of the regime of Salvador Allende, informs his cultural criticism.
Read this to reconsider assumptions about our children's literature and pop culture. Then follow up with his (earlier, amazing) How to Read Donald Duck.
Oh, I know, he's written plays and fiction; but this is what strikes me where I live.
