This book helps all of us to think about the importance of practitioners and agencies working together to consider and support children and families from a range of perspectives. It is a really useful contribution to thinking positively about the importance of listening to, and evaluating, the views of all those involved in working with children - especially the children themselves. Trevor Evans, Consultant and Social Worker
