“Diane Frankenstein has written an exceptional practical guide to exploring and expanding on children’s literature that will help anyone who reads with children to extend the experience and help them make connections between their thoughts and what they read. Also, by enriching young readers’ current experiences, it can also encourage them to become lifelong readers drawn to the enduring power of the written word to help them understand and articulate thoughts about life as they experience it.” – Marie Conti, American Montessori Society

Hester, Head of School at The American School in London
