Customer Reviews

excellent book for parents, doctors who treat children and teachers

This book explains the Montessori philosophy. Emphasizing that children from birth on should be treated with respect, the same repect we would have when we have a guest in the house. She talks about the newborn period and one wishes our kids doctors would read it, then she writes about kids and teens and their relationship with their parents. This book is a revolution for it's time and still is as actual as if it were written last month. I highly recommend it. It's a shame it isn't as popular as other Montessori books.
