Editorial Reviews
Canadian Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Review, Riffet B. Malik MBBS
Written in a stimulating and enchanting style…Recommended as an enjoyable introduction to the narrative therapy method with children and families.

AFTA Newsletter, Jo Ann Allen, Fall 1998
Therapists unfamiliar with narrative approaches will find this a primer of the basic idea and assumptions. Those who are experienced will welcome the refresher and new twists. The whole process of playfully separating the child from the problem, developing the counter plot, publishing the news of change, and insuring the continued growth of the new and preferred life story is covered. All the way along, the process is amply illustrated with practice examples. The book ends with five extended 'case stories' which very helpfully treat the reader to the thoughts and perceptions of the therapist.
