Michael Rosen examines four very different historical attempts at moulding the minds of the young.

Inventing new and novel ways to save the souls of their young, they wrote what now seem to be terrifying tales of children on their death beds, or books filled with images and graphic descriptions of brutally tortured Protestant martyrs.
