  1. Lemore,
    What's Going on in There, seem to be a great book. That is the age group I teach. I am always asking myself " why did she do that" now I see it has a lot to do with many factors in their life. I will get this book.

  2. I believe too that it is absolutely important to stay on top of current events and issues dealing with early childhood. We are EC professionals have an obligation to the children parents and community to know and be proficient in all issues pertaining to EC.
