This book is a good one to pick up for anyone who is either in training to become or is a therapist looking to continue their education in the area. My area of focus is not in children, however, as many of us know you inevitably do some types of family work over the course of your career. This book gave wonderful background, examples, and case examples of techniques. It is a quick and easy read. For those persons who have children at home it is even a nice hint in how to handle some issues that may arise.

This book more than passed my expectations. For both the novice and the experienced play therapist, this book pulls together theory and practice in an enjoyable and readable format.

The book arrived on the day promised and was in perfect condition. I have no complaints. This book is a 2011 edition and is much more expensive in my campus bookstore.

This is an excellent reference text for viewing various models of play therapy. I use it as an additional text in a course I teach called Counseling the Distressed Child. It serves to help see how various pratitioners of different models of play therapy would work with children and families.

Excellent for neophytes or those who have been around and need a refresher
