`In scope and spread this book deserves to become a standard text for policymakers, practitioners, those in training and their tutors. I welcome this book for its coverage of typical and atypical development in young children and its emphasis upon an ethical and principled approach to working with young children and their families' - Professor Sheila Wolfendale, Director of the Doctorate in Educational Psychology programme at the University of East LondonEducating Young Children with Special Needs is a comprehensive guide to working with such children. It outlines how to recognize when young children have atypical needs, how to individualize relevant programs for them, and how to make sure that they can participate socially with other children in the group. It highlights the importance of teachers' and caregivers' responsiveness both to the children and their parents.
