Book Reviews of The Absorbent Mind
Book Review: A "must" for those interested Montessori education.
Summary: 5 Stars
Maria was light years ahead of her time. Although the reading is a bit dry at times, I can personally attest to the effectiveness of the method, as my daughter is a "Montessori" child, and I am a teacher (I did,however, go through public schools, and received a decent education, and don't feel that I am "defective", nor are those who are not "normalized" in the Montessori sense). The Montessori method,as put forth in the book, is, simply put, extremely effective, and it works!
