A collection of essays from a host (30) familiar names including our own Roland Meighan.
‘These essays demonstrate, over and over, that learning happens best when we allow the learner to be in control and to follow her interests and curiosity, and when the adults’ role is to respect, trust and support the basic human drive to learn and grow. And they also show that when kids are able to learn this way, they grow up into well-rounded, community-minded adults who understand themselves and their palce in society.’ From the introduction by Wendy Priesnitz.
