The People in the Playground

by Iona Opie

About this title: For nearly 40 years, Iona Opie worked with her husband, Peter, on a notable series of books on the traditional lore of childhood, among them Children's Games in Street and Playground. As part of her fieldwork, she visited a local school playground every week, where she would write down events and conversations exactly as they happened. A startingly honest portrait of children at play.
