Synopsis
This edited volume investigates multiple perspectives of environmental meaning-making among children by evaluating preschool children’s drawings on the environment. It critically traces the formation of early attitudes towards the environment before children’s exposure to formal environmental education. Similarities and differences are explored among preschool children's drawings across diverse cultural and geographic backgrounds. Over five sections covering Morocco, Indonesia, Nigeria, Iraq, and Argentina, each one examines the factors affecting children's environmental drawings, such as age, gender, and geography. Using different theoretical frameworks, the chapters are written by researchers of environmental discourse and ecolinguistics with a background knowledge in environmental studies from a social science perspective. This book is of interest to researchers interested in ecolinguistics and socio-semiotics fields of study. This seminal book also paves the way for further research on preschool environmental education.
