on treating the causes of behavior problems to help young children
become happy, responsible, productive people. This book presents
guidance and discipline concepts within a framework of child
development, developmentally appropriate practices, and
constructivist education to give early childhood educators the best
approaches available for nurturing children for success. Focusing
on what is best for young children, rather than merely presenting
an impartial overview of various approaches, the authors stress
helping adults to effectively assist children's moral development
using the coercive approaches of punishment or behavior
modification. The emphasis is on guidance for children ages three
through eight. The new edition continues the features that made
previous editions so popular. Included are new Invitations to
Reflection, tables and figures, careful documentation and careful
explanations of the principles, and a stronger balance of preschool
and primary-grade level examples, while also including examples
with infants and toddlers, addresses the needs expressed by higher
education programs that address guidance for young children from
birth to age eight. Improve mastery and retention with the Enhanced

Sid James triple. In 'The Big Job' (1965), a gang of hapless crooks
successfully perpetrate a robbery only to be caught after the fact.
Fifteen years later they emerge from prison intent on retrieving
their stolen loot - and discover that a police station has been
built over its hiding place. Sylvia Syms, Dick Emery, Jim Dale and
Joan Sims co-star. In 'Make Mine a Milluion' (1959), an ad-man
teams up with a make-up artist in a cunning plot to advertise Bonko
detergent on non-commercial television. Despite the trouble it
causes, the plan proves a great success and the two chaps soon set
up a pirate television station with the intention of beaming their
advertisements into other company's TV shows. Again the idea proves
successful - but just how long can these two go on avoiding their
come-uppance? 'The Lavender Hill Mob' (1951) is a classic Ealing
comedy. Nobody would ever suspect gold bullion delivery man Henry
Holland (Alec Guinness) of anything other than total devotion to
his job. However, with the aid of fellow lodger Pendlebury (Stanley
Holloway), he gathers together a gang to carry out a heist,
intending to smuggle the gold out of the country by melting it down
into miniature models of the Eiffel Tower. All goes well until the
consignment of models becomes muddled up with another, non-golden
batch. Watch out for an early cameo by Audrey Hepburn.

A collection of five classic Ealing comedies. 'Kind Hearts and
Coronets' (1949) is a period comedy set in the early 20th century.
Young Louis Mazzini (Dennis Price) vows to take revenge on his
family, the D'Ascoynes, when he learns how they disinherited his
mother. Working his way into their trust, Louis begins to bump off
his distant relatives (all played by Alec Guinness) one by one, but
complications set in when Edith D'Ascoyne (Valerie Hobson), the
widow of his first victim, falls in love with him. In 'The
Ladykillers' (1955), eccentric landlady Mrs Wilberforce (Katie
Johnson) believes her new lodger Professor Marcus (Guinness) and
his associates the Major (Cecil Parker), Louis (Herbert Lom), Harry
(Peter Sellers) and One-Round (Danny Green) to be amateur
musicians. They are in fact, however, the perpetrators of a bank
heist, looking to whisk their ill-gotten gains out of London. All
goes well until Mrs Wilberforce is persuaded by Marcus to claim his
'trunk' from the station; it is only then that the criminal
genius's carefully laid plans begin to go awry. In 'The Man in The
White Suit' (1951), Sidney Stratton (Guiness) is a laboratory
cleaner in a textile factory who invents a material that will
neither wear out nor become dirty. Initially hailed as a great
discovery, Sidney's astonishing invention is suffocated by the
management when they realise that if it never wears out, people
will only ever have to purchase one suit of clothing. In 'Passport
to Pimlico' (1949), an unexploded bomb goes off in Pimlico,
uncovering documents which reveal that this part of London in fact
belongs to Burgundy in France. An automonous state is set up in a
spirit of optimism, but the petty squabbles of everyday life soon
shatter the Utopian vision of a non-restrictive nation. Finally, in
'The Lavender Hill Mob' (1951), nobody would ever suspect gold
bullion delivery man Henry Holland (Guinness) of anything other
than total devotion to his job. However, with the aid of fellow
lodger Pendlebury (Stanley Holloway), he gathers together a gang to
carry out a heist, intending to smuggle the gold out of the country
by melting it down into miniature models of the Eiffel Tower. All
goes well until the consignment of models becomes muddled up with
another, non-golden batch. Watch out for an early cameo by Audrey
Hepburn.
Collection of three films from Britain's Ealing Studios all
starring Alec Guinness. In 'Kind Hearts and Coronets' (1949) an
embittered aristocrat sets out to murder the eight heirs that stand
between him and succession to the family title. Louis Mazzini
(Dennis Price) holds no love for the aristocratic family he counts
as relations, the D'Ascoynes. The family cast his mother out when
she decided to marry a 'commoner', Louis's father, and on her death
refuse to allow her to be buried in the family vault. An outraged
Louis vows revenge and begins working his way into the trust of the
family to provide him with the opportunity to bump off the male
heirs (all played by Guinness) one by one. However, complications
arise when he becomes romantically entangled with one of the widows
of his victims, Edith D'Ascoyne (Valerie Hobson). Will Louis be
able to stay the course and murder his way to a Dukedom? In 'The
Lavender Hill Mob' (1951) Guinness stars as a mild-mannered bank
clerk whose sudden compulsion to rob the bank he works for causes
all manner of chaos. Henry Holland (Guinness) has been trusted with
delivering gold bullion for 20 years and is considered a safe pair
of hands by his employers. However, Henry harbours dreams of
becoming rich and hatches a plan to steal the gold when he makes
the acquaintance of the artist, Alfred Pendlebury (Stanley
Holloway). The pair realise that if Alfred melts the stolen gold
into miniature statues of the Eiffel Tower, it could be smuggled
safely to France and sold on. However, things go awry when the gold
statues become mixed in with a group of ordinary statues, leading
to a frantic chase as Henry and Alfred try to recover the gold
without their crime being detected. The film features a brief cameo
from a young Audrey Hepburn. In 'The Man in the White Suit' (1951)
eccentric Sidney Stratton (Guiness) is a laboratory cleaner in a
textile factory, who invents a material that will neither wear out
nor become dirty. Initially hailed as a great discovery, Sidney's
astonishing invention is suffocated by the management when they
realise that if it never wears out, people will only ever have to
purchase one suit of clothing.
