Description
"Watching two-year-old Alex and his toddler classmates act out his one-word "Mama" story, and hearing their teacher muse, "Seems like the best reason to tell a story, when you are two, is to keep Mama in mind, ' Vivian Paley found herself drawn into a remarkable childcare center. In Mrs. Tully's Room tells the story of the comforting and compelling community created by the center's gifted director." "In joining Paley on her many visits to this extraordinary center, readers see how childcare providers combine teaching ability and emotional responsiveness to help even the smallest children learn words, concepts, stories, and the management of their emotions. Mrs. Tully's memories of her own childhood enrich her ability to understand her two-, three-, four-, and five-year-olds and to draw them into the world of expressive storytelling."--Jacket.
