The evolution of storytelling and its impact upon child development is initially explored, followed by the consideration of how social class, ethnicity, culture, and colonialism impact upon the ways that societies ?school? children about what to expect from adulthood. Different perspectives of early years education and growing up within a British/British colonial perspective are discussed and analysed. There is a focus throughout upon the way that children are constructed by the society in question, particularly those who are considered to be of lower status in terms of being poor, orphaned, or from ethnic groups against which the dominant culture discriminates. Topics covered by the chapters include topics covered by this Special Issue: current and historical constructions of childhood; the development of linguistic and ?storying? skills in childhood; childhood play and recreation; childhood and ?folk? narratives; philosophies of childhood; childhood and industrialisation; childhood and post-industrialisation; childhood education; childhood health; and cultures of childcare. 610 $aplay 610 $ainstitutionalisation 610 $asocial reproduction 610 $amedia 610 $ahuman evolution 610 $achildren 610 $apurposes of nursery schooling 610 $aearly-years education history 610 $aschool readiness 610 $apoverty 610 $aearly childhood education 610 $aabandonment 610 $acolonialism 610 $aracism 610 $aschooling for parental responsibility 610 $achildhood 610 $aearly-years education 610 $aapartheid 610 $afoundling hospital 610 $aAfrica 610 $anarrative 610 $aunder-fives in elementary schools 610 $aurban Lancashire demographic sample 1901 610 $astorying 610 $amythology 610 $aopen-air nursery 610 $amaternal duties 610 $aSusan Isaacs 700 $aJarvis$b Pam$4auth$01338651 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910674363203321 996 $aA British Childhood?
