This is easily one of the best books on education I have ever read. I was immediately pulled in and felt the same feeling of inspiration and excitement I did when I first discovered that Early Childhood Educatoon was a field! So much to take away, and I know for certain this won’t be my only read through. The experience was made better by reading it with my colleagues. I want to send this book to ever school and teacher I have ever worked with.
