From Library Journal:
Levenstein, a clinical psychologist, reports on an early childhood education experiment she directed from 1967 to 1982 with welfare mothers and their children on Long Island. It was later replicated in 16 states and three countries. The program involved parent-child dialogue and play with high quality toys and books; it significantly aided the children in their intellectual growth and later school performance and increased the mothers' self-esteem. This book about an inexpensive program that helps close the achievement gap has an important message for educators, social workers, and psychologists.Shirley L.
