Secret of Childhood Mass Market Paperback – 12 January 1982

An essential handbook for every parent and child giver to understand the inner working of a child's psyche and be more equipped to help in their development

Good book and nice dealer got book before estimated date.

A book worth reading if you want to know what your kid thinks and does and why. It helps you think like a kid and not like a parent. Good Buy. .thanks Amazon

Good

i expected a bit more..it just shared experiences..

I am not into reading much. However picked few books recently and this is one of that. I love books which is straightforward than dramatic explanation. May be i dint like the narration. I was looking for tips all over and there are hardly any.

Good insights however seems very idealistic.

The paper printing quality, font , ink is damn poor and not eye friendly.

Excellent book republished. Larger than standard size book, with clear text.

The book and it's contest is pretty good. The actual product was very poor... the cover was broken and to me the book looks like it's used. The sheets look old and the ink makes it difficult to read.

I find Dr. Montessori to be a very interesting person. Being she studied her work years ago, well before attention was given to the child, this book was very amazing to me.I enjoyed reading her perspective on children and observing how life has changed so much. I think for me, one of my favorite parts of her writing is she did not have to be politically correct. Montessori wrote what she felt and observed. The rest is up to the reader.I will point out this is a dry read. One based off of facts and and observations.Overall I did learn a lot of Maria Montessori. I know it has changed my outlook on children and will influenced the way I go about education. A long difficult read, but one well worth it.

The copy of this book is of poor quality. The writing on the back is not straight, the print is a little blurry with thin pages that you can see the writing on the other side of the page and their is a piece of gold tape stuck on the back that says "original".Besides the poor quality version, the book is a difficult read. I presume it is accurately copied from the original but who knows?!

There is absolutely nothing I ve disliked in this book. It contains so many beautiful philosphical statements, on each page you will find something that you will wish to remember for all your life. Considering the time she has written it - it presents a master piece
