Opis

This book offers a fascinating yet disturbing account of the significance of racism in the lives of young children and shows how they make sense of experiences with their understanding of race, gender and sexuality.

Recenzje

'While recognising the need for further research, Connolly offers a fascinating and convincing analysis of some young children's peer cultures. His analysis if of great practical value in identifying key issues which must be addressed in the development of anti-racist and anti-sexist education.' - - British Journal of Educational Studies

'There are plenty of ideas in the book to provoke thought and challenge some assumptions about children's awareness of the adult world.' - Nursery World

'The book is particularly interesting in bringing to the fore the impact of politics and policy on the shaping of young children's identities, attitudes and beliefs. And it is for this reason that I would recommend this book to teachers and educational psychologists.' - Janice Shaw, Debate, British Psychological Society
