Taking up a little-known story of education, schooling, and missionary endeavor, Helen May, Baljit Kaur, and Larry Prochner focus on the experiences of very young ‘native' children in three British colonies. Sarah De Leeuw and Margo Greenwood open the book with the foreward "History lessons: What empire, education, and Indigenous childhoods teaches us".
