Tiny Feet: A Treasury for Parents - An Anthology

"For parents in the throes of babydom: Tiny Feet is a slim miscellany of historical and literary extracts about how children see the world and how adults see children. Introduced with humor and charm by author and illustrator Lauren Child, this collection offers perspectives that are sometimes captivating, sometimes amusingly anachronistic . . . Tiny Feet is ideal for browsing in fugitive moments of calm amid the squalls." The Wall Street Journal "Showcasing a range of the most influential writing about children over the past four hundred years . . . the extracts featured in this delightful compendium show the extent to which some of our attitudes have changed while others remain absolute, and remind us of the joy that children have always brought to our lives." Motherwell Introduced by Lauren Child, and with contributions from Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Maria Montessori, Dr. Spock, D. W. Winnicott, Toni Morrison and many more, this ideal gift book for soon-to-be parents shows the extent to which some of our attitudes have changed while others remain absolute, and reminds us of the joy that children bring to our lives.
