To a small child, the world is a exciting but sometimes frighting and unstable place. In THE MAGIC YEARS, Selma Fraiberg takes the reader into the mind of the child, showing how he confronts this world and learns to cope with it. With great warmth and perception, she disscusses the problems at each stage of development and reveals the qualities- above all, the quality of understanding- that can provide the right answer at critical moments.
