We have just received the very positive reviews from Springer about our new edited book that is in the final stages of publication:
Mahony, L., McLeod, S., Salamon, A., Dwyer, J. (Eds.) (2023, in press). Early childhood voices: Children, families, professionals. Springer.
Some of the comments included:
- "Voice has been explored in early childhood before, but the focus of this book from a social justice perspective contextualizes voice work in a powerful way."
- "The interdisciplinary nature of the book is to be commended! This not only means the book is of interest to a larger audience but also allows readers to understand the nuanced perspectives on a common topic across the disciplines."
- "The definition of voice is broad and encompassing"
- "The writing is well grounded in key research works. Throughout the chapters, the authors draw on world renowned studies and leading papers in the field. It presents rigor and confidence in the work."
- "The images of children and drawings by children bring the book to life and are a wonderful addition." "The UNCRC is threaded throughout the book which is valuable because it reduces the tendency to focus only Article 12 and 13 when considering voice work.".
- "The book also tackles head on the diversity of experience and culture. It moves away from a privileged perspective on voice work and includes many chapters on complexity and challenges in life"
We are excited about finalising the book, so that it can be published and read throughout the world.
