Description: Children's culture is not only culture for children; it's culture by children -- yet scholars of children's culture overwhelmingly center work by adults for children. Producing Children acknowledges and theorizes children as cultural producers, underscoring how such creativity empowers children as active participants in their own culture, and helps us to reconceive our understandings of children themselves.

Review Quotes: "Producing Children brings together rich, interdisciplinary perspectives to offer fresh insight on children's role in cultural production. The case studies explored in this collection reinforce the urgency of centering children's voices, experiences, and agency in how we understand the definitions and operations of culture."--Ashleigh Greene Wade "author of Black Girl Autopoetics: Agency in Everyday Digital Practice"
