It builds a picture of how children participate in, or become caught up in, literacies and language in the contexts of their everyday lives. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Throughout the book, recognised understandings of young children are decentred in favour of experiential knowing of parents and communities, body-place knowing and ordinary affects. Abigail Hackett argues that young children's literacies are always more-than-human, involving sounds, gestures and movements between humans and nonhuman places and things. By paying close attention to the more-than-human nature of these literacies, which rely on bodies, places, animals, humans, objects and atmospheres for their ongoingness, a case is made for the decentring of young children. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e The book will be of particular interest to researchers looking at feminist-new materialism, posthumanism, affect theory, and critical literacy in early childhood settings.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Academic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49436695789795,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0764\/3758\/6147\/files\/9781350144729-1.jpg?v=1788379900","url":"https:\/\/usa.kinokuniya.com\/products\/9781350144729","provider":"Books Kinokuniya USA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
