Long out of print, this classic book with an exceptionally current relevance is being made available once again. In it, more than 300 drawings are reproduced, revealing the full spectrum of normal and abnormal development. Young Children and Their Drawings is an extraordinary invitation into the world of the young child and, at the same time, an opportunity to look out at the world with the child's eyes. The first section of the book charts normal development, from the scrawls of the 13 month-old to representational efforts of the 6-year-old. In the second section, drawings are used as diagnostic tools for learning disabilities, cerebral palsy, hearing loss, personality disorders, and more.

4.0 out of 5 stars
good book--what there is of it,
By
This review is from: Young Children And Their Drawings (Paperback)
Although the book is over 300 pages, most of it is full-page illustrations and white space. I learned only a little bit, but that was because it took only a few hours to read the book.I would advise obtaining a copy through your local library or through interlibrary loan, but not spending too much money on buying a copy. While you're at it, get 0876302495 and 0876300549.
