The Good-bye Window

"[Brown's] writing is beautiful and her scholarship sound. Students considering day-care careers, day-care professionals, and concerned parents will gain insight by reading this provocative book, as will anyone who cares about the future of young children in this country." - Choice; "I admire enormously the ambition of this book - its eagle-eyed witness and engrossing detail, plus the social importance of the project. I wish there were in the world more books like it." - Lorrie Moore, author of Who Will Run the Frog Hospital?"
