added to the media criticism section

From Anachronistic Mom's kiddie media criticism page Someone just recommended that I read Susan Linn's book Consuming Kids: The Hostile Takeover of Childhood. I don't think that I'm going to, frankly. There is so much neat information out there that I don't have time to read a book essentially telling me what I already know. If you wonder about this topic though, hey, it sounds great! Here's another one in the commercialization genre: Born to Buy: The Commercialized Child and the New Consumer Culture by Juliet Schor.
