Book excerpt: Deftly weaving anthropology, sociology, psychology, and theories of education, Honoring the Moment in Young Children’s Lives invites us to remake our image of the child and truly appreciate children’s lives as we see through their eyes. Honor the moments you spend with young children with a deeper understanding of their perspective and whole selves and use the unique position of educator to translate children’s moments, both ordinary and extraordinary, for their families and communities. Take the next step in observing and documenting young children and step into the role of researcher, an ethnographer who takes a close-up look and uses that rich knowledge to advocate for children’s rights and needs.
