Understanding Children's Drawings Tracing the Path of Incarnation Translated by Pauline Wehrleby Michaela Strauss

“In its drawings, the child describes for us different conditions of  consciousness, which are parallel with those of cultural epochs.” —Michaela Strauss
It  is not uncommon for children’s drawings to end up in the wastepaper  basket. Yet these early artistic expressions indicate how children  communicate with their environment. From the first scratches and  scribbles to the detailed sketches of houses and people, the drawings  and paintings of our children are significant manifestations of their  inner processes and contain important statements about their development  and gradual incarnation into a physical body. 
Michaela Strauss’s  classic work is a pioneer study that can strengthen observation,  understanding and love for the being of the child, both in the home and  the kindergarten.
First issued in 1978, it is republished here  with revisions, improved reproductions, a larger format, and more than  40 pages of color illustrations.  Format:       Paperback
