We first encounter Mollie on the first day of school, just before her third birthday, and we follow her and her classmates for the next year. Alongside her, we go from confusion and uncertainty in new surroundings to growing understanding and confidence, as patterns emerge and Mollie begins to grasp their significance--and her teacher begins to understand how to track her growth and development. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Rather than offer an account of an idealized, all but imaginary child, Paley presents us with one actual kid, in all their complexity and confusion. The result is a landmark contribution to our understanding of child development and the role early education can play in fostering it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Vivian Gussin Paley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Chicago Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/15\/1988\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.39lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.01h x 5.28w x 0.44d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780226644943\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003ePaley, Vivian Gussin:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cb\u003eVivian Gussin Paley\u003c\/b\u003e (1929-2019) worked for nearly forty years as a preschool and kindergarten teacher and is the author of thirteen books about young children.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of Chicago Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45022654136435,"sku":"9780226644943","price":30.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_47e8772c-5be4-47e8-8617-93db2255182e.jpg?v=1779278733","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/mollie-is-three-growing-up-in-school-9780226644943","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
