Reviews / Votes
"This collection will appeal to anyone interested in the spatial workings of children's everyday social processes. In the field of children's spatialities, it will facilitate interdisciplinary conversations that move both children's geographies and childhood studies forward. The book contributes to the field regarding, in particular, how to theorise about and research very young children's embodied, emplaced experiences and knowledge, and how their bodies become physically entangled in their social and material worlds through recurrent movement and embodied interaction." (Danielle van der Burgt, Children's Geographies, Vol. 16 (2), June, 2017)More details
