Abstract
This thesis focuses on the inside and outside of preadolescent literature, a subgenre that has
been widely neglected by literary scholars, educators, and book publishers. In Chapter 2, I
analyze the themes within The Giver by Lois Lowry and use the developmental stage of
preadolescence to define a subgenre of preadolescence, which has distinct characteristics that
separate it from the other subgenres of children’s literature. In Chapter 3, I focus on the
outside of preadolescent literature, using the results of bookseller and author surveys and
research on the history of the tween retail market to uncover the subtle messages being
communicated to tween consumers. I consider the liminal position of novels for
preadolescent readers within the larger book-producing world by studying the publishing,
marketing, and store placement of these novels. By comparing the preadolescents’ roles as
implied readers and active consumers, I explore why these readers and their novels are being
overlooked and offer some possible solutions for amending this great problem.
