- 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.
