Doing Your Early Years Research Project Reviews

Guy Roberts-Holmes' book has such a wonderful, easy to follow, step-by-step approach to breaking down what many students find a daunting prospect during their studies: managing, planning and carrying out their research project. This book is not only packed with great information, it is clear and well written, with great reflective points making it captivating. I loved the use of practical examples, checklists and web links throughout which is excellent as you feel like you have your own personal tutor on this journey, making this book an enjoyable yet stimulating read.

-- Samantha Coombes-McCalla
As a student attempting to conduct research and write academically, I would definitely recommend this book to any student in the early years field. The book provides an in-depth knowledge of concepts, methods, structure and research process. It also includes experiences of students which is a great help for beginners and provides actual guidance from the beginning till the end. -- Richa Barhat
