About this book
In the most thorough attempt to cover all aspects of children’s make-believe, Dorothy and Jerome Singer examine how imaginative play begins and develops, from the infant’s first smiles to the toddler’s engagement in social pretend play.
Reviews
A stimulating and scholarly presentation of…an important area of human existence.
-- Nicholas Tucker Times Educational Supplement
-- Nicholas Tucker Times Educational Supplement
A thoughtfully organized and well-written book. The use of the wonderful biographical material, together with the anecdotal cultural materials, makes the book interesting and entertaining to read despite the enormous amount of research cited… It is by far the broadest and most comprehensive book on play and imagination that is currently available.
