One of the best biographies of Friedrich Froebel ever written. The Baroness Marenholz von Bulow provides a well-written account of her fateful meeting with Froebel and how the events of the last two years of Froebel’s life shaped her destiny. This remarkable woman went on to become Froebel’s most ardent and influential supporter and spread the Kindergarten throughout Europe and the world.
There are few works that document this important period of history. This book provides an important historical context for understanding Froebel’s philosophy and Kindergarten method. The author’s fascinating story is also a personal account of her struggle to find meaning in her life while blazing the trail for the equality of women.
