Picturebooks, Pedagogy and Philosophy

By Karin Murris and Joanna Haynes

Book Overview

Contemporary picturebooks open up spaces for philosophical dialogues and offer unique opportunities to explore ideas and to create meaning collaboratively. Through a lively exploration of children's responses to picturebooks, the authors paint a way of working philosophically based on respectful listening and creative and authentic interactions, rather than scripted lessons.
