This programme illustrates the basic concepts of her educational practice and shows how it is being implemented in learning establishments - particularly with children between the ages of three and six. Archive footage of Montessori's life is interspersed throughout this fascinating documentary.

Secret of the Wild Child dvd
Ref: 1167
In 1970, social workers took custody of a 13-year-old child, "Genie", who had spent much of her life chained to a potty chair in her bedroom. The 13-year-old girl, who had been locked in a room in social isolation for most of her life, was severely under-developed, unable to talk and barely able to walk.
"...the result is so gentle and thoughtful that viewers who have remained friends with the children they once were themselves will not want to miss it." - Laurence Vittes, The Hollywood Reporter"
