Description:This book offers rich critical perspectives on the marketing of a variety of toys, brands, and product categories.

Toy marketing warrants a sustained scholarly critique because of toys’ cultural significance and their roles in children’s lives, as well as the industry’s economic importance. Discourses surrounding toys—including who certain toys are meant for and what various toys and brands can signify about their owners’ identities—have implications for our understandings of adults’ expectations of children and of broader societal norms into which children are being socialized.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
