154 pages: This is the book to begin with, for both parents and teachers. There are QR codes that lead to YouTube video clips the author has used in her work in thirty countries. They show the potential—especially in the first years—much more convincingly than words could (14 QR codes in the 0-3 section; 6 in the 3-6 section; and 3 more). There are pictures and practice from the author’s own teaching, and other authentic Montessori programs around the world.
