Summary In Marion Richardson: Her Life and Her Contribution to Handwriting, Rosemary Sassoon's recognizes Richardson's groundbreaking contribution to the freeing of the teaching of child art and her two handwriting schemes - the main one based on her observations of children's pattern paintings and the natural movement of young children's hands. In both areas of her work she changed attitudes worldwide. The book promotes the value and creativity of child art and writing viewed as a natural progression from pattern. Sassoon focuses on Richardson's personal life and character, and is fully illustrated
