"Korczak's words resonate across the years and have amazing modern-day relevance."--Jim Harding, director of the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children Born in Poland in 1878, educator, physician, and legendary child advocate Janusz Korczak believed that simply understanding children is the key to being able to take care of them. It's a basic premise too often overlooked. This collection of one hundred quotations and passages from Korczak's writings provides valuable advice on how to take care of, respect, and love every child.

Грустная книга о нелегкой жизни маленьких исследователей жизни.
Они такие серьезные, с немым укором в глазах взирают на нас, тиранящих их взрослых.
И наши улыбки над этой их серьезность глубоко ранят.
Наши поцелуи вызывают брезгливость.
Лишь изредка промелькнет на этом задумчивом личике тень улыбки и умчится к кому-то более радостному.

Конечно, я утрирую. Но впечатления эта книга у меня оставила именно такие.
В некоторых местах хотелось выдавить крокодилову слезу, только она, зараза, заартачилась.

Чтож, такое видение детства тоже имеет право на существование. (

Epigraph

Dedication

First words

Quotations

To what extent does the concept of possession tie up with the concept of power? Primitive man discovered that his bow and arrow were not merely a possession, but a hand which could strike at a distance.

Teach children to not only value truth, but also to recognize lies; not only to respect, but also to feel contempt; not only to become reconciled, but also to feel outrage; not only to give in, but also to rebel.

"...children shall be provided with education, social security, and health care...they shall be protected from exploitation, abuse, torture, and the effects of war, and on reaching a reasonable age shall be consulted on any decisions involving them. (Convention on the Rights of the Child, passed unanimously by the United Nations General Assembly in 1989)
