Montaigne believed that education should be based on the individual needs and abilities of each child, rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. He believed that children should be encouraged to learn through experience and exploration, rather than simply memorizing information. Montaigne also emphasized the importance of moral education, teaching children to be virtuous and ethical individuals. The book is written in a conversational style, with Montaigne sharing anecdotes and personal experiences to support his ideas.
