Reviews

For this edition, the research has been updated with some of the families and practitioners revisited. Two new chapters focus on parents as researchers and family drop-in sessions. This is a very important book, one that will prove invaluable in helping you develop parental partnerships and engagement to a level where you have two powerful 'sets of knowledge' working in the best interests of children. -- Neil Henty
