This book is aimed at students training to teach children between the ages of three and eight, but I feel it would be useful to a much wider professional readership. It's an excellent and easy-to-read text, blending theory and research with practice.

Each chapter format is clear, with the key themes outlined at the beginning, then the main body, followed by useful and thought-provoking questions for good practice to ponder and relevant further reading at the end.
