and for some great resources, here's a taste of the literature I delved into while doing my Masters Degree in Environmental Education:

- The Geography of Childhood
- Caring Education and Meaningful Democracy
- Educating the Child's Inner Power
- The Soul of Educaton
- Paths of Learning: Ron Miller
Enjoy!
