I think that anyone who is interested in the development of child's creative process ought to have this book. It is a classic that reads wonderfully well. It is written with sensitivity for the child and without academic jargon. Many ideas in this book are still alive and well, serving as a foundation for more developed current models of creative development. Applicable to art educators, creativity researchers, art therapists, and educational psychologists.
