With the new millennium we have seen several landmark books
of readings about the relationship of children and media,
emphasizing the new media of the Internet and convergence
of older media. Singer and Singer's (2001) Handbook of Children
and the Media and Fisch and Truglio's (2001) and G Is
for Growing: Thirty Years of Research on Children and Sesame
Street have created milestones for the study of children
and media in the new millennium.
