Free to Learn by Peter Gray
Peter Gray is the leading voice on the importance of childhood play โ€” and the role of play in kidsโ€™ development.

Itโ€™s thorough, shocking, and highly informative, and every parent should read it.
The Intellectual Lives of Children by Susan Engel
The development of our intellect begins early in toddlerhood. Itโ€™s a complex and self-directed process, and most of us donโ€™t understand it.

The Self-Driven Child by William Stixrud
Our world has slowly been evolving to control every aspect of our kidsโ€™ lives โ€” but their best learning happens when they have freedom.
