Mollie Is Three: Growing Up in School Paperback – December 15, 1988

It’s Vivian Paley….she’s a rock star in ECE

As a retired classroom teacher having taught for 45 years, raised 10 children ( five of whom were adopted from DSS as young children), and presently bringing up a grandchild aged two and a half who has just started preschool, I ordered this book to find out what he might be experiencing in school. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and couldn't put it down. I also added to my fund of knowledge about three year olds and how they interact and form ideas. After reading this book I am looking forward to reading all her other books. I thoroughly enjoyed her style of writing. If you are involved with a two or three year old I highly recommend this book!

This is a wonderful read for anyone working with children and families! Offering new perspective on how to look at race and culture! I would recommend this book to anyone working with children and families to take a different approach to working with these families! Written through the eyes of a classroom of three year olds, Paley takes you through a school year to view the changes in language and lives of three year olds!

Easy read as you read about different behaviors of children in a child care center. Good story about a group of children and their interactions amongst themselves and the teacher.

Nice book

This book lets you into how a 3 year old think and process and interact with you and their world. Wow. What an eye-opener for me. Gave me lots of new information to put to use right away and make communication much more rich.D. Hopkins

A wonderful book for seeing the world through the eyes of a young children..as interpreted by a master teacher of young ones.
