Rezensionen

'If you have ever pondered what could make the world a better place, the answer just might lie within the pages of this book. Could the major human-made problems of recent decades have looked different if all children were given the opportunity to learn empathy? There is every reason to believe that preventing future social injustice, inequality, conflict, climate change and poverty requires a focus on early childhood. This book is an opportunity for educators and parents to shape a brighter future - starting with the young children in their care.'

Kelly-Ann Allen, Educational and Developmental Psychologist, Monash University, Australia.

'Early childhood experiences provide vital seeds for ongoing social and emotional development in humans. This book offers a readily accessible and thoroughly researched resource for practitioners looking to foster children's social and emotional development. The book is full of valuable information and examples for embedding social and emotional learning in early childhood classrooms.'
