Review:

"[The text] is a great combination of providing an overview of families, different types of schools, and how to get involved in the community. It allows my students to show the effects of how families, schools and communities can work together for the better of the child."

"[The text is] a comprehensive sociological look at the ecology of the child. This text really utilizes the ecological model and makes it come alive."
