"A classic book on developmental screening that is particularly helpful for the classroom teacher. In my 20 years of teaching assessment to preservice as well as practicing teachers, this book has consistently been one I require my students to read. The language is clear and understandable, explaining very complx concepts in ways that enable teachers not familiar with measurements to grasp the ideas."

— Deborah J. Leong, coauthor of Basics of Assessment (NAEYC) and Assessing and Guiding Young Chidlren's Development and Learning (Pearson)
