Marilou hyson biography of christopher

“Provides a clear understanding of the myriad of ways in which high-quality early childhood education programs matter in the early years, and they matter a lot.”
—From the Foreword by Jacqueline Jones, former Deputy Assistant Secretary for Policy and Early Learning, U.S.

Department of Education

“This book does a remarkable job of inviting future and current practitioners further into the world of the early childhood profession. It provides clear, interesting, and succinct overviews of issues critical for those working in early childhood to understand, weaving in the most recent developments in research, policy, and practice in accessible ways.

Each section of the book also literally puts a face on a selected issue, inviting readers to meet a child and family experiencing the issue as well as colleagues focusing on it in their work. The book is engaging—both a pleasure to read and effective in welcoming readers to take part in work of great significance.”
