- Summary:
- Writing for teachers and others involved with children, Haynes (education studies, U. of Plymouth, UK) and Murris (education, U. of the Witwatersrand, South Africa) combine insights gained from many years of serious thinking about children, philosophy, education, and the uses of literature. They have observed that "many adults, teachers, and teacher educators are anxious about discussing controversial issues with children and avoid open-ended dialogue about works of children's literature that might touch on taboo subjects." This study investigates provocative picture books, children's responses and experiences, and philosophical listening. Annotation ©2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
