Good practice is stressed throughout, and I found it an easily read, interesting book which should appeal to interested practitioners from a variety of backgrounds. It could easily be described as a working handbook. Making it a useful addition to those considering counselling children - The Lecturer `If you only buy one book about counselling children - this is the one to buy.

The authors suggest ways to use different media and recommend which media are suitable for different ages of children. In addition to providing a framework for working with children, this is a useful handbook to refer to again and again. I highly recommend it `This book is straightforward and realistic in its suggested approach to working with children. The format and style make it easy to read and refer to. All sections are clear and enable the practitioner to incorporate the suggestions into a comprehensive approach to working with children and their families.
