Description
A brief, paperback version of Early Childhood Education Today. Focus of this brief version remains the same as the larger book-to provide a comprehensive overview of current topics and trends, history of the field and early childhood programming. Primary difference between the big book and this shorter version is that there is less emphasis on theory and more on professional development. This is a perfect book for community colleges or where the course is only 1 to 2 credits.
