Paper Summary:

This essay will construct a challenge to three novels for children with respect to their inherent biases: Paula Fox's "The Slave Dancer", Lynne Reid Banks' "The Indian in the Cupboard", and Rudyard Kipling's "How the Leopard Got his Spots". In constructing this challenge, I believe that it is important that I explain my own biases and how they influence my challenge. I would argue that it would be arrogant for educators or parents today to consider that we are without biases.
