Understanding Children's Drawings: Tracing the Path of Incarnation

It is not uncommon for the drawings of our little ones to end up in the wastepaper basket. Yet these early artistic expressions contain important statements about children s development. From the first scratches and scribbles to the detailed sketches of houses and people, children s drawings are significant manifestations of inner processes indications of the gradual incarnation into a physical body.

Michaela Strauss s classic book is a pioneer work that can strengthen observation, understanding, and love for the being of the child, both in the parental home and in the kindergarten. First issued in 1978, this revised edition has improved reproductions and a larger format.

Fully illustrated in color.
