Janet Erskine Stuart Books

Janet Erskine Stuart, also known as Mother Janet Stuart, was a Roman Catholic nun and educator who believed that education stems from who teachers are, rather than what they say or do. She emphasized that children should be brought up for the future, not the present. Stuart was concerned with the development of children's minds, hearts, characters, and conduct, stressing parents' right to ask teachers what influence they had on their children. Her writings explore these educational principles and the spiritual life.
