Su questo libro

Recensione:

"This book will aid adults who seek to be more effective in their interactions with youth. More importantly, it offers a framework to help school personnel reconnect to the values and purposes that brought them into education and keep their interactions with children consistently grounded in their best intentions." (William Madsen, Training Coordinator)

"What you are about to read represents an ingenious application of narrative ideas to work in schools. While many people use these ideas, this book develops them in novel and interesting ways. Clearly, this is some of the most creative and exciting work I have seen in this field." (Jeffrey Zimmerman, Director)
