Through the case study of Mildred, a young girl struggling with school failure and emotional distress, the author meticulously unveils a complex web of factors contributing to her difficulties.

Through the author's detailed account of Mildred's experiences, readers are given a window into the pioneering work of the Bureau of Childrens Guidance in New York City.
