'I am pleased to read a publication that challenges our language and our thinking in discussing children's lives. European Childhoods encourages us to look beyond legislation, policies and services to children's experiences and examine the assumptions behind the way we describe them.'

'For anyone with an academic or professional interest in children's rights, this collection would be an invaluable addition to their library and is an inspirational precedent for discussing childhoods in general.' - Liz Moore, Social Policy
