Description de l'ouvrage :
This book takes a radically new approach to the well-worn topic of children's relationship with the media, avoiding the "risks and benefits" paradigm while examining very young children's interactions with film and television. Bazalgette proposes a refocus on the learning processes that children must go through in order to understand what they are watching on televisions, phones, or iPads. To demonstrate this, she offers unique insight from research done with her twin grandchildren starting from just before they were two years old, with analysis drawn from the field of embodied cognition to help identify minute behaviours and expressions as signals of emotions and thought processes. The book makes the case that all inquiry into early childhood movie-viewing should be based on the premise that learning–usually self-driven–is taking place throughout.

Revue de Presse :
"This is an innovative and important book. Combining meticulous research, fascinating data and the judicious use of theory, Bazalgette brings us much closer to young children’s experiences and perspectives than previous research―and in the process, she refutes many popular myths about their engagements with moving images. Elegantly written, engaging, and wise, this book deserves to be widely read, not just by researchers and students, but also by teachers and parents." ―David Buckingham, Emeritus Professor, Loughborough University, UK
"How Toddlers Learn the Secret Language of Movies is an excellent read underpinned by some serious ethnographic research. I particularly admire Cary’s respect for young children and her openness to their learning. Cary very effectively challenges many ‘taken–for–granted’ beliefs about young children and media and especially the language used when discussing young children and movie watching. Recommended reading for parents and teachers."―Cath Arnold, Associate, Pen Green Research Base, UK
