Recenzii

Title mention in an article in The Guardian, July 2008
"Brighouse... [and] Glueck highlight many essential questions about life that are raised in works of children's literature" Times Educational Supplement, August 2008
'[T]his volume will establish beyond question the value of putting philosophy and its rich gift of insights and methods at the centre of schooling for children of all ages.' A.C. Grayling, Birkbeck College, University of London, UK
Twelve chapters by different authors offer a rich variety of perspectives on this topic. Several of the later contributions make constructive suggestions about how the subject might be taught in the school classroom. The editors provide a helpful introduction that draws together the main themes of the book and summarizes the contents... engaging.
