Dan Cook, author of The Commodification of Childhood, is interviewed in the Philadelphia Daily News about young girls' affinity for princess culture. "The question comes down to, What is the ultimate harm?" Cook says. "Does it lead to a particular view of femininity? At what point does it get to be too much?" Cook will be speaking on princess culture Thursday, January 31 at 7:30 at the Barnes and Noble in Marlton, New Jersey.
