Boy bully seeking order, discipline sent to co-ed liberal school, finds a unit within it where rules are rigidly enforced, commits to join them, finds her place; as a well-disciplined schoolgirl! Much fun is had by the 'boys', at 'her' expense! Grown-up girls subvert a boys school, take it over, force hated boy cousin into a the girlie role mapped out for the ringleader, recreate the school games of their youth. Ineffectual patronising young Schoolmaster puts down a young girl's acting; she has her revenge through hypnosis to first feminise the class bully, then takes his place, and has him take her's, and then puts both of them through some very salutary humiliation and punishments to make the change permanent. Headmistress forced to employ a schoolmaster by the Chairwoman of the Governors, when she'd have preferred all her teachers to be women; the 'gels' oblige and feminise, then cane him, leading to some very interesting and penetrating liaisons amongst the pupils and staff!

Girls' school stories are still dismissed by adult critics as less significant than boys' school stories, despite recent academic recognition of the importance of children's literature generally. This encyclopaedia helps to redress the balance with over 400 entries on girls' school story writers. There is an entry for every British, Canadian, Australian and New Zealand author known to the editorial team who had published at least one full-length story between 1876 and 1999. In the introduction, Sue Sims provides an overview of the development of the girls' school story and the influence on the genre of key authors, works and publishers. Rosemary Auchmuty's analysis of the critical response which these works have received highlights the different reactions of those who work in the book world, feminist critics and fans of the stories. A huge amount of original research is evident in the detailed entries by Sue Sims, Hilary Clare and a number of invited contributors, all experts in their field. Readers will agree that this encyclopaedia demonstrates that as a body of work, girls' school stories have played an enormous part in women's history and the evolution of children's literature in general.
