?What a wonderful resource for scholars and students alike. Dafna Lemish has identified, reviewed and reflected upon a vast array of research on children and media in order to draw out its key themes, significant debates and emerging conclusions. She also lays down a challenge to us all to develop this rich seam of ideas for the future benefit of children worldwide.? Sonia Livingstone, Department of Media and Communications, London School of Economics and Political Science. ?Dafna Lemish has written a wonderful book---it examines the literature on children and media from multiple perspectives: developmental, global and cultural....no other book is as comprehensive and accessible.? Ellen Wartella, Department of Communication Studies, Northwestern University
