By Sue Cowley (Featherstone, £19.99)
From ideas to build finger strength and hand-eye co-ordination, to activities for understanding the concept of symbols, and strategies for building confidence in reading and writing, this is a repository of good ideas and good practice drawn from the author’s own experience. ‘If I have one hope for how this book will work for you,’ she says, ‘it is that it will help you to trust in your professional judgement in your gut instinct about what works.’
