Whippersnappers is the first book to tell the history of children as photographers, from school societies in the 1880s, via post-war camera clubs and radical 1970s workshops, to the coming of digital cameras. Annebella Pollen shows how photography was presented and promoted to children - by camera companies, comics, and teachers - and how the children themselves chose to use it. They include the girls whose trick photographs of the Cottingley Fairies fooled the nation; and the family given cameras and limitless film for a year by a national newspaper. Tracing photography's movement from elite pastime to accessible hobby, including a wealth of photos taken by children - of pets and friends, teachers and toys, fairies and ghosts - it presents a unique child's-eye view of the world, seen through the camera.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ICA Bookstore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":60163914039680,"sku":null,"price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0012\/4390\/6109\/files\/613VYpAci9L._SY522.jpg?v=1792497160","url":"https:\/\/shop.ica.art\/products\/how-many-women-are-in-the-room-copy","provider":"ICA Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
