This journal considers all aspects of children's and young adult literature: critical analysis, authorship, illustration, publishing, as well as social and cultural influences.

"The Looking Glass: new perspectives in children's literature (ISSN 1551-5680) ... was first published as a set of webpages in 1997, its parent organization was the Toronto Centre for the Study of Children's Literature (TCSCL), then housed at the Faculty of Information Studies, University of Toronto. From July 1998, it was independent of any institutional support and was published by volunteers in the United States. In 2007 La Trobe University in Australia began providing hosting and technical support, utilising the [now de-commissioned] OJS open access journal system."
