How small children begin to read, write, count, and
investigate the world, without being taught.. The essence of John
Holts insight into learning and small children is captured in
Learning All The Time. This delightful book by the influential
author of How Children Fail and How Children Learn shows how
children learn to read, write, and count in their everyday life at

process. For human beings, he reminds us, learning is as natural as
breathing. John Holts wit, his gentle wisdom, and his infectious
love of little children bring joy to parent and teacher alike.
