Product Description

Review

'As in the first edition of this important book, Marion Dowling takes up all the main issues confronting those who work with young children in a wide variety of settings. The explanations, case studies and suggestions provide an invaluable resource for all of us who aim to build solid foundations right from the start' - from the foreword by Lillian Katz, Professor of Early Childhood Education, University of Illinois, USA


'Those who know the quality of Marion Dowling's work will not be disappointed ... As always her deep understanding of, and sensitivity to, the needs of very young children shines through her work' - Lesley Staggs, National Director, Foundation Stage, Primary National Strategy


'[This book] should be essential reading for students studying for early years qualifications...The author brings a wealth of experience in the world of early years to her writing, combining this with a wisdom and understanding of what really matters for young children. The text is thoroughly researched and referenced but the author's writing style is very readable and engaging' - Early Years Update

Fantastic book covering self esteem, confidence and emotional attachment of children. Studying for my early years foundation degree found this book really helpful with my emotional and social development module and used it frequently.

You Do Need This 26 Nov 2010
Format:Paperback
Recommended for my EYP course and sorry to come up with the cliche "If you buy one book.." but this is well worth the money. I ensured I got the most up-to-date edition. It really covers everything and the real-life case studies make it enjoyable to read, fascinating, and believable.
What I particularly like is the pervading ethos and attitude of the author, being truly child-centred. You will refer to it confidently again and again so it really does provide value for money.
