Reviews

"""This book is a tour de force. Not only does it include major literature which illuminates the subject in accessible ways, but it demonstrates powerfully key aspects important for developing practice. The author is a respected Froebelian practitioner/trainer. Bringing together in a integrated way the theoretical and the practitioner perspectives so that there is impact for children’s lives is rarely achieved. This book is to be valued for this reason."" - Tina Bruce CBE, Honorary Professor, University of Roehampton ""This is a key text which underlines the complexity of the roles of the Early Years educator. It addresses the need of group supervision for Early Years educators and how Work Group supervision can help develop professional practice. The hidden challenges of observing children alongside the notion of children's play is examined with useful and practical examples. The application of amongst others: Froebel, Vygotsky, Piaget and Freud to Early Years education gives this work theoretical depth. A must read book for undergraduate, postgraduate students and professional practitioners working and interested in both Education and Early Childhood Studies."" - Dr. Richard Race, Senior Lecturer in Education, Roehampton University, UK ""This book is a tour de force.
