Summary: "In this book, Edmond Schoorel looks at childhood from the point of view of physiological development. He describes the landscape one encounters in raising children. It is obvious that a one-year-old asks for a different approach from that needed for a four-year-old. There are psychological differences and also differences in the stages of physical and biological development. Western lifestyle is not easy for young children. They are easily invited first of all to be consumers and to develop a demanding or even commanding attitude instead of meeting the world with admiration, wonder, and curiosity. This book shows that the first seven years of childhood should be a free space, without concern for the future. During these years, everything is provisional. The child and his or her caregivers are preparing the seeds for the child's future and the future of the world. This book gives the background of the singularity of this period. It is meant to be read by preschool teachers, parents, grandparents, and all others who want to know more about the laws and secrets of the first seven years."--Publisher's website.
