Child Development and Education bridges the gap between theory and practice, showing those who teach and care for infants, children, and adolescents how to apply developmental research and theory to everyday practice. More so than any other text, Child Development and Education not only describes developmental phenomena--for infants through late adolescence--but also faciliates observations of and analyses of what children say, do, and create, ensuring that educators can make informed decisions that meet children's and adolescent's needs.

    Just what we needed for school ... If we would have purchased this at campus, and returned it at the end of the semester, we would still have been out a lot of $$$ This is a great program!

    4.0 out of 5 stars Good textbook overall
    Reviewed in the United States on 28 November 2015

    As with many of my books, I bought this one because of a class I was taking in college. I have had a lot of textbooks over my three years in school, and this one was about average. There were a lot of very colorful pictures which make large reading easier for me, as well as a series of personal stories which made the overall premise more interesting. There were a lot of sidebar notes that I tended to find rather distracting and time consuming to review, and this tended to be a little bit of a downside for me. While the overall idea of the book was good it did spend a large amount of time discussing minute details regarding paperwork that is typically used within the special education field, including things such as the standard IEP. I acknowledge that all of this information is very important but it did get tedious to read the same information again and again. It wasn't my favorite book out of all the ones I've had, but the writing is very clear. Overall I think it was a good book, but if you are a broke college student like me I never really used it in the class and probably wouldn't purchase it again, but that is going to vary depending on who your professor is and what school you go to. However for a college textbook I did find it to be rather cheap and therefore a good deal so if you need the book I would recommend you get it from here.
