Faith Rogow’s book, Media Literacy for Young Children: Teaching Beyond the Screen Time Debate, addresses the pervasive role of media in contemporary society and culture, emphasizing its crucial integration into early childhood education. Rogow advocates for a paradigm shift in how educators approach media literacy, moving beyond traditional concerns of health and safety toward cultivating critical inquiry skills. By reframing media as a tool for learning and development rather than solely as a potential risk, the book challenges educators to guide young children effectively in navigating today’s media landscape.
