The Search for a Theology of Childhood: Essays by Jerome W. Berryman from 1978-2009

The collection features major writings by Jerome W Berryman, a key figure in the Montessori tradition and the founder of Godly Play, which focuses on religious education for children. Spanning over 30 years, these writings explore Berryman's evolving thoughts and are now largely inaccessible elsewhere. This compilation is particularly valuable for Godly Play trainers and teachers, as well as scholars and practitioners in religious education working with children. Brendan Hyde, a Senior Lecturer in Religious Education, contributes insights from his collaboration with Berryman.
