Read the abstract and knew I couldn't go on. Rant, rant. Who cares!?! If they tell the kiddies that Puerto Ricans eat tacos, then I'd get uppity, but like you said, Lizzie, isn't the story that counts? I mean, if they are publishing a kids book for Western kids, isn't it okay if it's more inspired by than an exact copy of the original? Maybe I wouldn't have written such simplistic analysis if I'd read the whole article, but there's a derivative novel I want to go read.
Now I have to admit that I only read about a third of the article before I gave up in frustration and annoyance. As I said... I wish I had the energy. But there's a derivative novel I want to go write.
