This annotated bibliography of more than 150 books and articles covers a wide range of topical areas concerned with the relationship of the young child to his environment. Among the 18 topics included are: child development; health, educational, staff, and community programs; infants and toddlers, handicapped children; Project Head Start; day care; and disadvantaged children. Sources for periodicals, bibliographies, and films are also listed. The bibliography is intended to be a source of information within itself as well as a directory to information sources. Annotations are extensive. The selection of publications to be included was guided by the professional interests of the project staff rather than by any explicit theory of early child care and development. (Author/AJ)
