Drawing on theoretical works by Clare Colebrook, Naomi Klein, Donna Haraway and Bruno Latour the book offers creative readings of sci-fi novels, short stories and films including Frankenstein, The Road, Handmaid's Tale, The Girl with All the Gifts and Beasts of the Southern Wild. Emily Ashton raises important questions about and the theorization of child development, the ontology of children, racialization, parenting and care, and how those intersect with questions of colonialism, climate, and indigeneity. The book contributes to the growing scholarship within childhood studies that is reconceptualizing the child within the Anthropocene era and argues for child-climate futures that renounce white supremacy and support Black and Indigenous futurities." 410 0$aFeminist thought in childhood research. 517 $aAnthropocene Childhoods 606 $aEarly childhood education 615 0$aEarly childhood education. 676 $a372.2 700 $aAshton$b Emily$01263114 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910597887603321 996 $aAnthropocene childhoods$92959312 997 $aUNINA
