I won't grow up! : the comic man-child in film from 1901 to the present / Anthony Balducci.
"This book provides a comprehensive examination of the character of the man-child, from André Deed, who debuted on screen in 1901, to Seth Rogen. The author discusses changing cultural attitudes about maturity, what it means to be an adult, what it means to be a child and how those things are becoming increasingly confused"-- Provided by publisher.
