Synopsis

Popular literature suggests that boys in general prefer more activity (especially outdoors), can be more competitive than girls with a keen sense of fairness and hierarchy and have a more single minded approach to projects. This exciting new book in the series considers the significant role that the physical environment can play in supporting boys' speaking and listening skills - in supporting inquisitive, verbal experimentation, not just answering questions!
