Reviews

This book demonstrates how literacy education can flourish when togetherness, community and diversity are at the core of the literacy pedagogy, when teachers work with children to generate safe spaces where it is possible for children to experiment with meaning making and, through doing so, to play with possibilities for who they might be and what they might do. Cathy Burnett, Professor Emerita, Sheffield Hallam University, UK
