This is an invaluable book for teaching photography and media literacy in the primary school. Illustrated with examples of photographers, many taken with a 35mm Konica Pop, it enables teachers to help children to gain control of the camera and capture precisely what they want in a photograph. It is also a resource for teachers to help children explore the messages, explicit and implicit, in photographs.

Framing the Child is produced by Watershed Media Centre in Bristol and draws on the work carried out in local primary schools. Links to areas of the National Curriculum include English, Mathematics, Science, Design and Technology, History and Art. Religious Education and PHSE are also covered.

Published by Watershed and Trentham Books, with assistance from the Arts Council of England.
