To assume a singular construction of urban places misrepresents the experiences, perspectives, and identities of urban children, making their identities become invisible to researchers, educators, and curriculum developers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSharing a wide range of perspectives, The Role of Place and Play in Young Children's Language and Literacy sheds light on language and literacy learning in play-based early childhood settings where place plays an important role in teaching and learning.
