This is a must-read for teachers, teacher candidates, counselors, and parents. It's wonderful to see a book addressing the needs of children in such an empowering way. Dr. LeBrun not only assists any reader to understand the psychopathology in children and the problems they encounter, but how we can look for visible signs and deal with them most effectively. His research provides practical insights that will make a difference to the lives of children everywhere.
