Reviews:

Just what the wider
educational community
needs—a book written with
passion and understanding
by a Montessori parent to
other parents. Trevor Eissler
is a rare parent who can put
into writing his enthusiasm
and first-hand experience as
a Montessori advocate to
other parents.

Montessori Institute of Texas”

…after five pages I was hooked and
read the 290 pages on my computer
screen in one sitting…Buy a copy of
Montessori Madness and after you’ve
read it give it to your sister, your
brother, your neighbor, or your local
library. “Leave” it at your YMCA,
pediatrician’s office, grocery store or
wherever, and create a viral marketing
tool for Montessori education. Deliver
a copy to your local public school
superintendent, your mayor, and your
state legislator.
-Maren Schmidt, author of Understanding
Montessori and children Talk

This is by far the most passionate,
interesting (and even humorous at
times) Montessori book we have read in
a long time. It is written by a father, a
pilot, who compares the Montessori
education his children are receiving
with his own education. His insight
makes this revolutionary educational
method understood better even by those
teachers and teacher trainers who
know it well…it is the most valuable
parent book available today.
