CHILDREN KNOW THEIR FRIENDS

Some psychological pointers about the handling of certain aspects of childhood:- patterns of memory and behaviour, methods of discipline, self protection and compensation, the problem of the new baby, patterns of work and play, relations between parents and teachers, the value of affection. Illustrated with case histories. Not a basic book, not as specific as Dunbar's Your Child's Mind and Body (Random House)- and more informal in presentation.
