Recensioner i media

Carol Ross has produced a compact and easily assimilatable book of activities and interventions using an art therapy approach. The text is copiously illustrated with examples of art work produced by children involved in the project. Clearly identifiable as a 'what to do' and 'how to do it' manual, the book is likely to be of appeal to busy professionals desirous of accessing the ideas without ploughing through pages of dense print. The book deserves support for the variety of ideas presented [...] many of which may be useful to counsellors and therapists.
