AnonyMouse_705 Posted April 15, 2007 Posted April 15, 2007 Hi Would be grateful if you could recommend good books for studying. Am currently doing the Foundation Degree but not just specifically for that. Particularly books about the different theorists, child developement/behaviour etc. Someone has asked this question previously but I cannot find it doing a forum search. Thanks Debbie
