Reaching and Teaching Children Who Hurt

This is a book I wrote addressing the needs of traumatized children in public school settings. Given the

overwhelming number of children with "aces too high", it is importnat for  teachers recognize some

common characteristics of traumatized children. Reaching and Teaching Children Who Hurt is jam-

packed with information about the effects of trauma on learning and behavior. Reviewers

agree that it "adeptly translates theroy and research in the impact of trauma on children into practical

strategies for use in educational settings" (Betsy Mc-Alister-Groves, Chiild Witness to Violence

Project).  The book is easy to read and  lends itself well to a "book club" format or as background

information for professional development workshops. The section on integrating a trauma sensitive

perspective throughout a school will appeal to administrators.And there is a list of books for social

workers or counselors to use as bibliotherapy.
