The Child in the Family – NZ35
Education for a New World – NZ35
The Absorbent Mind – NZ39
The Child in the Family is a great source for parent evenings and this version of The Absorbent Mind contains the develop of language and the development of movement as pull out charts! (these are pure joy for book geeks!)
We are also taking orders for Understanding the Human Being by Dr Silvana Montanaro.
