The Montessori Child book tour

We are delighted to be celebrating the birth of the third book in the trilogy, The Montessori Child, with a book tour.

This book has been three years in the making and the wait is finally over! It picks up where The Montessori Toddler leaves off, covering children from 3 to 12 years (and a chapter on adolescence).

Junnifa and I would love to celebrate with you. We hope to meet you all at one of our book events.

There are 8 chances to join us:

  • 6 x in-person events in the US – Dallas, Austin, Orlando, New York, DC and Baltimore
  • 1 x in-person event in Amsterdam (details to come), and
  • 1 x online event for everyone else hosted by CCMA in Canada

Hope to see you there!
