How to nurture young children's well-being and learning to reverse the erosion of childhood? Children's lives have been speeded up by commercialisation, 'adultification', and the government's 'nappy curriculum' which 'schoolifies' them and pushes quasi-formal learning too soon. Now, in twenty-three hard-hitting chapters, leading educators, researchers, policy makers and parents advocate alternative ways ahead for slowing childhood, better policy-making and, above all, the 'right learning at the right time' in children's growth ? learning when they are developmentally ready.

"The world of childhood is seldom represented in the educational bureaus of national governments. Governmental schools do not have the goal of fostering the authentic inner lives of our children. Instead, they focus on turning out productive and obedient citizens armed with the skills needed to take their places in the market-place. It may be that someday the pleas of those who truly understand the lives of children will be heeded by such national governments! This collection of distinguished essays addressing the need to care for the inner lives of our young might possibly help to being about such a change - but the adamancy of governments is notorious, so one can but hope!" --Mary Leue, Founder and Director of The Free School, Albany, New York
