School objects telling stories: The production of an institutionalized childhood

Antônia Gomes' astute and unique work deals with how school objects and teaching resources are endowed with content that strays from the idea of neutrality and impartiality. With a sensitive and respectful approach, the author offers her readers a journey through school practices and their restrictive and transgressive potential, in a contradictory composite endowed with interest, worldview, and ideological perspective. This work, the result of serious and compelling research, translates the simplest forms of presentation of school disputes in everyday institutional life, making it essential reading for researchers of the history of education, teacher training, and anyone interested in the magical, diverse, and intriguing educational space that is school.
