A Good Book For A Early Childhood Doctoral Seminar

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
ECE Icon Sue Bredekamp fires us up in this book that picks the mind of lots of the brightest minds in the field. Jalongo (of Early Childhood Education Journal fame) stays in the background while Isenberg leads the way on issues of child development. Check out the excellent article by Kevin Swick on working with familes of young children.
