The Public School Montessorian says of the author: "Her books on Montessori education almost certainly establish her as the most widely read interpreter of Montessori in the United States.… Her writing is clear and accessible, unfettered by jargon." For those interested in the best education for their children, this volume fully lives up to its title. It has earned its place as the essential work on the subject.
