A few words "This book represents an educational and teaching innovation. Essentially, it proposes the introduction and teaching of philosophy in kindergarten, elementary school, middle school, and high school. Its proposal is structured and well-founded:

1. Firstly, it is historically, philosophically, psychologically, pedagogically, and educationally substantiated. Covering a historical period of 2,700 years, it incorporates and utilizes the views and practices of prominent philosophers and educators, starting from Pythagoras and Epicurus to Jaspers and Lipman.

2. It is also thematically comprehensive. The subjects-lessons that concern it relate to man, society, economy, state, ethics, freedom, reason, soul, friendship, love, death, God, the universe, life. Everything that occupied philosophers... A vast but interesting and useful field of contemplation.

3. It is further enriched with reinforcement exercises (fill-in-the-blanks, matching, true or false, crosswords, etc.), making it more accessible and enjoyable for young children. The theatrical enactment, which concludes the book - where children portray philosophers - serves as the culmination.

4. Finally, the rich bibliography provided, both in each lesson and on the last pages, substantiates its philosophical, pedagogical, and educational proposal.

For anyone who might ask the question: "Is it possible for children to do philosophy?" the author has a champion in a leading figure in Cognitive Psychology and discovery learning, Bruner, and his pedagogical principle: "Children, at any age, can be taught and learn anything, provided the right way, the appropriate teaching method, is found to help them in this." The philosophical dialogue among children, revolving around a topic each time, contributes to awakening their philosophical questions and reflections. At the same time, as the author rightly points out, both this dialogue and its individual subjects limit the violent resolution of disputes among children, as they teach and accustom them to resolve them through reason."
