Reviews

"""There is a severe lack of research on the Asian American early childhood education. The authors of Early Childhood and the Asian American Experience address this issue by offering a critical, intersectional analysis of Asian American early childhood education rooted in Asian-centric theorizing and paradigms. This book is an important, impactful intervention in educational research."" Wayne Au, Dean and Professor, University of Washington Bothell, Editor, Rethinking Schools. “Early Childhood and the Asian American Experience: Exploring Intersectionality and Addressing Misrepresentations is a necessary book that provokes readers to rethink the stereotype of Asian-American children as the model minority. I commend the authors for their valuable insights on justice-centered teaching by addressing misrepresentation and offering pathways for inclusivity in early childhood education.” Okhee Lee, Ph.D. Professor, Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development, New York University"
