John Holt
This enduring classic of educational thought offers teachers and parents deep, original insight into the nature of early learning. John Holt was the first to make clear that, for small children, "learning is as natural as breathing." In this delightful yet profound book, he looks at how we learn to talk, to read, to count, and to reason, and how we can nurture and encourage these natural abilities in our children.

I’ve never made so many notes on a book before and recommend this for anyone curious about childhood development, education, and the oddly cyclical lack of transformation the public system has taken for the benefit of children.
As a millennial nostalgic for the simplicity of the 90’s, I aspire to homeschool my children for their young years as I watch the school system be over inflated, cost ineffective, and fail students as it has for decades. Bureaucracy has obliterated the tried and true nuance of child growth and development. How they learn, the significance of parental involvement, and treating children like little adults, are lost gems of knowledge; parents have bought into the cool aid that only “trained professionals” can educate children. And it just isn’t so. I’m recommending this book to everyone.
