| Summary |
"In this timely and needed volume, Linda Goldman addresses many of the frightening events that impact the lives of today's youth, providing guidance to the adults who are looked to for support in trying times. This richly illustrated book brings topics to life through children's artwork, writing, and photographs, while a series of exercises and activities help adults creatively interact with children and adolescents. This book will help you to first get a better understanding of how our youth experiences traumatic events, stress, and grief, and then apply practical techniques, interventions, and strategies to help children in need, with the ultimate goal of empowering our children to be resilient in today's world."--BOOK JACKET |
