The clear, generously spaced text in this appealing book really invites the reader in. The authors have made good use of both photographs and diagrams to illustrate throughout. I found the diagrams of the brain particularly good, with clear, informative explanations.

There are six chapters, covering respect for babies, how they learn, different ways in which they communicate, and how to be a professional childcarer and work in partnership with others.

All sections are supported well with case studies. Focus points work well, sometimes giving information and sometimes asking questions for the reader to consider.
