Excellent resource for teachers of young children

This is a well written and user friendly guide to developmentally appropriate program planning. It guides with lots of questions and gives good examples. Debbie Curtis is in touch with the latest thinking in the early childhood field. I highly recommend this resource to teachers and program directors.
