"""This book offers an unusual, rich, and nuanced analysis of children's social dynamics within and beyond a Swiss kindergarten. Delving deep into the intricate interactions among children, parents, and teachers, the author unveils the complex everyday processes shaping perceptions of sameness and difference, hierarchies, and opportunities without reducing these to simple causalities based on class, gender, ethnicity, or religion. A must-read for anyone seeking to understand children's entry into society—and what society can do to facilitate the path for as many as possible."" -- Eva Gulløv * coauthor of Children of the Welfare State: Civilising Practices in Schools, Childcare and Families * ""A wonderful child-centered anthropological celebration of human diversity, Jaeger’s study of social differentiation in a Swiss kindergarten demonstrates how young children create social belonging by navigating among several multi-referential social orders—in kindergarten, afterschool daycare, the neighborhood, and on trips 'home' to their parents’ country of origin."" -- Pamela Feldman-Savelsberg * author of Mothers on the Move: Reproducing Belonging between Africa and Europe *"
