Editorial Reviews
Review
"This well-written, comprehensive, often wise book should become a standard, well-thumbed reference for all adults who wish to increase their competency in communicating with children. Its wisdom is that while it consistently offers practical advice, it never offer simplistic solutions to the very complicated task of getting accurate information from children." --Children and Youth Services Review

1.0 out of 5 stars
Not for everybody,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: What Children Can Tell Us: Eliciting, Interpreting, and Evaluating Critical Information from Children (Jossey-Bass Social & Behavioral Science) (Paperback)
Made a mistake on getting this book. This is for professionals, not for parents really. I dont even know why they sell this book at amazon. Should sell it at the police station or psychiatric office. I had to give it 1 star for this reason, otherwise the book is probably very useful....again for specific group of people
