Book excerpt: "In Self-Esteem and Successful Early Learning, the author examines the patterns of relationships within families, the growth of understanding between very young children and adults, and how children's feelings affect their learning." "By describing the lives of two young children, Lily and Joe, within their fictional family, the author enables us to observe their relationships and then examine our observations in the light of her expert commentary. This accessible and effective approach allows us to re-examine our own responses to the behaviour of young children." "In this book, Rosemary Roberts shows how self-esteem is the key to children's well-being and to effective teaching and learning. She describes learning theories in a straightforward and accessible way together with suggestions about how teachers, parents and others can make the most of children's drive to explore, play and gain control. Suggestions are also made for dealing with situations which arise in the nursery, at school and in the homes of young children and their important adults."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
