What Reviewers Are Saying
"Children Framing Childhoods challenges the deficit models of working-class children by asking them to tell us what is important to know about school and home. Demonstrating their ways of doing care work offers adults lessons on how to create a caring environment and offers hope for the future of our country." Mary Romero, President of the American Sociological Association "Luttrell's elegant visual ethnography of home and school brings forward the caring work of immigrant families, teachers, and young students themselves. Her innovative "collaborative seeing" methodology challenges deficit perceptions of urban schooling and offers a vision of education with caring at its core." Marjorie DeVault, Syracuse University "Wendy Luttrell has given us a gem that will innovate critical childhood studies for years to come. This book takes us on an intimate journey across time and images, claiming space for children's carework." Lauren J Silver, Rutgers University-Camden
