About This Item
U.S.A: Alfred A Knopf, 1987. Paperback. Very Good/No Jacket. 8vo - over 7. Trade Paperback in Very Good Condition. David Elkind has written a very important, very serious book about the miseducation of preschoolers still going on today. He shows how there is a very real difference between the minds of a preschool child and that of a school age child. Preschool children learn when provided with developmentally appropriate practices. He shows how a healthy education supports and encourages spontaneous learning processes through which young children explore and learn to understand their immediate world. Miseducation, trying to teach the wrong things at the wrong time can permanently damage a child's self-esteem and bring about the loss of a positive attitude a child needs for learning. 221 pages with Notes and Index. 8.4 x 5.5 inches. 1987, Alfred A Knopf, USA
