'One question may be the 'scaffolding' that will help the child rise to the next level of development', (Berk and Winsler, 1997). This quote underlines the importance of posing questions for the development of thinking and learning. Today, more than ever, the interest of education focuses on the questions which young pupils may have and guides them to asking productive as well as creative questions. The book addresses those studying early childhood education as well as pre-school teachers.
