Creative Drama for Emotional Support

By Penny McFarlane (Jessica Kingsley Publishers, 14.99, ISBN 9781849052511)

A useful resource for early years and primary school teachers to support (rather than treat) children displaying low-level emotional problems. The main component is an activities section which relates drama and activities to issues that could affect children, such as parental separation and bereavement. The reader is taken through the drama exercises on a step-by-step basis, with a balance of in-depth and practical information that makes this a thought-provoking and accessible guide.
