How children think

Philosophy Forums Psychology and Mind

I find child pyschology, in general, to be rather fascinating. Unlike adult psychology, which deals with an already matured, experience pysche, child psychology deals with the process that a child’s mind goes through in order to become mature.

Does anyone have any good suggestions of books that deal with child psychology? Please not I’ve already read a few books by Jean Piaget and Freud.). :confused:

Thanks,
