Abstract
Every night, Bailey dreams about magical dresses: dresses made of crystals and rainbows, dresses made of flowers, dresses made of windows... Unfortunately, when Bailey's awake, no one wants to hear about these beautiful dreams. Quite the contrary: "You're a BOY!"; Mother and Father tell Bailey. "You shouldn't be thinking about dresses at all." Then Bailey meets Laurel, an older girl who is touched and inspired by Bailey's imagination and courage. In friendship, the two of them begin making dresses together. And Bailey becomes the girl she always dreamed she'd be!

Abstract
A book that aims at proving that training preschoolers with flash cards and attempting to hurry intellectual development doesn't pay off. In fact, the authors claim, kids who are pressured early on to join the academic rat race don't fair any better than children who are allowed to take their time. Alarmed by the current trend toward creating baby Einsteins, the book urges parents to step back and practice the "Three R's: Reflect, Resist, and Recenter." Instead of pushing preschoolers into academically oriented programs that focus on early achievement, the authors suggest that children learn best through simple playtime, which enhances problem solving skills, attention span, social development and creativity. The authors walk parents through much of the recent research on the way children learn, debunking such myths as the Mozart effect, and pointing out that much learning unravels naturally, programmed through centuries of evolution.

Cette encyclopédie en quatre volumes se propose d'aborder de la manière la plus large et la plus objective les problèmes de la sexualité, sous leur double aspect scientifique et relationnel. Racontée sous forme d'histoire dans les tomes 4-6 ans et 7-9 ans, la vie sexuelle est mise en scène sans préjugés ni tabous. Elle est illustrée clairement dans un style tendre et humoristique. Les tomes 10-13 ans et ados répondent à toutes les questions que l'on se pose à cet âge-là, sans oser parfois en parler, et de nombreuses photos complètent les explications et les schémas. Ces ouvrages, rédigés par quatre spécialistes, s'adressent à toute la famille. Petits et grands peuvent les consulter librement. Quelle que soit la façon dont ils sont utilisés, ils ont pour but de faciliter la naissance ou la reprise du dialogue entre les adultes et les enfants sur le délicat sujet de la sexualité
