Now that my definition of steampunk and the branch of steampunk for kids has been outlined, I want to provide a little road map of where I am going with this exploration and the bumps I hit along the way.
Firstly, I took advantage of my job at a book store to really explore the children's section for steampunk-related story books, and to my chagrin, it took a great deal longer to find anything resembling my definition. Finally though, I stumbled upon a few steampunk related books that I'll discuss in further detail in a later post. So this blog is going to detail my little journey through the land of children's steampunk, looking closely at some of the literature I found, a kickstarter page for a potential steampunk kids story book, and I will conclude by addressing the problematic facet of kids steampunk with regards to the way the genre is marketed to children in the media.
Here we go!! ...
