CARING FOR CHILDREN: a foundation course in child care and education. Penny Tassoni (Heinemann Child Care, 11.99, 01865 888080). Reviewed by Jennie Lindon, early years consultant.
This book specifically supports the CACHE Foundation Award in Caring for Children. This award and others similar in content and aims are much needed to provide a realistic introduction to working with young children, especially when there is so much pressure nationally to bring more people into this line of work.
The goals for Penny Tassoni's book, like the course it supports, were to give a sound spread of information, so that prospective early years practitioners can understand the main aspects of child development, care of children and working together without being overwhelmed by too much detail. This book achieves this important goal.
