A Scholarly Collection for Thoughtful Readers, February 16, 2009
This review is from: Making a Place for Pleasure in Early Childhood Education (Hardcover)
This is a collection of articles by some leading theorists working in early childhood education and childhood cultural studies. Contributors consider and challenge discourses of early childhood education that have normalized particular perspectives on the good child and good teacher of early childhood. For those who think that the lives of young children and their teachers are a bit more complicated than the world of Barney, this is a thought-provoking, important read.

Children are not guinea pigs, March 21, 2008
This review is from: Making a Place for Pleasure in Early Childhood Education (Hardcover)
It is completely shocking to me that the contributors think that their views are relevant or worthy of experimentation on young impressionable children. They have the air of suggestion that those that don't support their way-liberal social experiment are mean spirited and somehow suppressing sexual expression in young children!!?? Delusional- that's what I think of their ideas!!
