Your course reading list should be your starting point but I found 'Understanding Early Years' by Louise Dryden et al, 'Like Bees, not Butterflies' - Sally Featherstone useful. Helen Penn's book 'understanding early childhoood' really challenged me and made me take a good look at my practice, it also gave me some really clear arguements for my assignments.
