Commodification in Children's Texts: Comparison of "The Diary of a Young Girl" and "Pokemon".
This is a comparison paper of "The Diary of a Young Girl" and "Pokemon". Both Pokemon and "The Diary of a Young Girl" illustrate that it is not possible to escape from commodification in children's texts; Anne's diary is, in fact, a commodity, just as much as Pokemon was designed as a commercial venture and to create commodities.
