Holt's thoughts and observations go far beyond the ordinary and provoke us into seeing other possibilities to our treatment of the young; children are indeed capable human beings and deserve to be respected as such.
He certainly shows up childhood in a different light; one from the perspective of the child, were the child able to express in words how the world appears to him or her.
