What the child does

Montessori For You And Your Child in a child's hands

Mary Da Prato answering the question most families actually have, which is what Montessori is, in a straight question and answer format. 102 pages, soft cover, first edition, 2011. Almost everybody has heard the name and very few could say what the method teaches, and a book built as questions is the honest shape for that gap: a parent reads the three questions they came with and stops, rather than working through a theory they did not ask for. Paper and cardstock.

How can this book help if my child attends a traditional school?
