Great!
This book is fantastic! It's takes a wide range of perpectives and looks at many aspects of Reggio pedagogy. The chapter on physical space was especially interesting. Well recomended for ITT and Early childhood studies students. Has many important thinking points and implications for our own practice.

Fabulous book!
This is a brilliant book for anyone working with young children. This book has helped me both professionally as a teaching assistant and personally with my own children. Buy it!
