Beyond listening by Alison Clark
This book is the first of its kind to focus on listening to young children, both from an international perspective and through combining theory, practice and reflection. With contributions and examples from researchers and practitioners it examines how listening to young children in early childhood services is understood and practiced.
"Bringing together theory, research and practical experiences used worldwide, it reinforces the importance of listening to young children.. A must for early years professionals as a study aid and for research purposes this is not a book to be read from cover to cover but rather to be digested in small mouthfuls to allow the reader to explore its content and apply it in practice." 0-19
