Who Am I in the Lives of Children? is a foundational text in early childhood education that adopts a constructivist, child-centered approach for learners from birth through grade 3. By weaving together engaging personal narratives, authentic children’s work, and research-based theory, the book helps educators understand how children learn and develop within the context of their individual strengths, interests, cultures, and challenges. Rather than promoting a one-size-fits-all model, it emphasizes responsive teaching that aligns daily practice with each child’s unique identity and needs.
