He starts to make a beautiful rock pool garden and, as he does, he finds the courage to feel the full pain of his loss, instead of closing his heart.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"\u003e[CODE: SM-4719, Set of two books]\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"\u003e[Author: Margot Sunderland, Age Suitability: 3 - 14]\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBooks in this Series:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/psychologists\/counselling\/helping-children-locked-in-rage-or-hate-how-hatie-hated-detail\"\u003eHelping Children Locked in Rage or Hate \u0026amp; How Hattie Hated Kindess\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/teachers-educationalists\/emotional-issues-sphe\/feelings-and-emotions\/helping-children-who-have-hardened-their-hearts-or-become-bullies-a-wibble-called-bipley-detail\"\u003eHelping Children who have Hardened their Hearts or Become Bullies \u0026amp; A Wibble Called Bipley\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/parents\/helping-children-with-low-self-esteem-ruby-and-the-rubbish-bin-detail\"\u003eHelping Children with Low Self-Esteem \u0026amp; Ruby and the Rubbish Bin\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/psychologists\/counselling\/helping-children-who-bottle-up-their-feelings-a-nifflenoo-called-nevermind-detail\"\u003eHelping Children who Bottle Up their Feelings \u0026amp; A Nifflenoo Called Nevermind\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/psychologists\/counselling\/helping-children-pursue-their-hopes-and-dreams-a-pea-called-mildred-detail\"\u003eHelping Children Pursue Their Hopes and Dreams \u0026amp; A Pea Called Mildred\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/psychologists\/counselling\/helping-children-with-fear-teenie-weenie-in-a-too-big-world-detail\"\u003eHelping Children with Fear \u0026amp; Teenie Weenie in a Too Big World\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/psychologists\/counselling\/helping-children-who-are-anxious-or-obsessional-willy-and-the-wobbly-house-detail\"\u003eHelping Children who are Anxious or Obsessional \u0026amp; Willy and the Wobbly House\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/psychologists\/counselling\/helping-children-with-loss-the-day-the-sea-went-out-detail\"\u003eHelping Children with Loss \u0026amp; The Day The Sea Went Out and Never Came Back\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/psychologists\/counselling\/helping-children-who-yearn-for-someone-they-love-the-frog-who-longed-for-the-moon-to-smile-detail\"\u003eHelping Children who Yearn for Someone They Love \u0026amp; The Frog who Longed for the Moon to Smile\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/parents\/helping-children-of-troubled-parents-monica-plums-horrid-problem-detail\"\u003eHelping Children of Troubled Parents \u0026amp; Monica Plum's Horrid Problem\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/psychologists\/clinical-psychology\/using-story-telling-as-therapeutic-tool-with-children-detail\"\u003eUsing Storytelling as a Therapeutic Tool with Children\u003c\/a\u003e (Handbook)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/teachers-educationalists\/emotional-issues-sphe\/helping-children-with-feelings-full-set-21-book-set-detail\"\u003eHelping Children with Feelings Full Set\u003c\/a\u003e (21 Books)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Outside The Box","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51273240609051,"sku":"9780863884719","price":52.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0915\/4363\/4203\/files\/9780863884719.jpg?v=1771450496"},{"product_id":"using-story-telling-as-therapeutic-tool-with-children","title":"Using Story Telling As Therapeutic Tool With Children","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"\u003eThis practical manual begins with the philosophy and psychology underpinning the therapeutic value of storytelling.

The CD Rom also provides PowerPoint slides for training staff in using the Toolbox.  As an experienced professional, teacher and educational psychologist, Rob Long’s strategies combine innovation with sound psychology and learning theories.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e[ISBN: 9781412946056; 120 Pages]\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e[Author: Rob Long; Age Suitability: All]\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOther Rob Long Titles:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Rob Long Omnibus Edition of Better Behaviour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBeating the Blues Book A: Personal Blues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBeating the Blues Book B: Relationship Blues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Sage Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51273243197723,"sku":"9781412946056","price":61.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0915\/4363\/4203\/files\/9781412946056.jpg?v=1771450641"},{"product_id":"mindfulness-in-the-classroom-book-and-cds-simple-skills-for-peace-and-productivity-in-the-classroom","title":"Mindfulness In The Classroom Book And Cds: Simple Skills For Peace And Productivity In The Classroom","description":"\u003cp\u003eMindfulness in the Classroom is new and comprehensive Mindfulness Programme designed specifically for Irish Primary Schools.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold\"\u003ephotocopiable\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold\"\u003ebook\u003c\/span\u003e and accompanying \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold\"\u003eaudio\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold\"\u003eCDs\u003c\/span\u003e shows teachers how to use the evidence-proven technique of mindfulness to manage the stressful demands of the classroom, cultivate an exceptional school environment and revitalise their teaching and their students' learning.

As a youth worker, I often work with young people struggling through the torrent of feelings, emotions and self-doubt that adolescence can bring, and the links Plummer makes between self-esteem, self-concept and self-evaluation will be invaluable in helping me devise curricula that explore these different facets and develop self-help skills. I particularly liked the section on images and associative sensitivity as it has put a name to something I too have noticed within groups of people who have built an understanding and empathy with each other. This is particularly so with young people in out-of-home settings. In the second half of the book she offers a range of activities, some familiar and some new. From the concise instructions and additional facilitator notes it is clear that Deborah is a writer who is also an experienced practitioner. This adds an honesty and credence to her work that inspires practitioners to feel confident when facilitating the suggested activities, without necessarily being an expert. There is too much to read and learn to be able to condense into a few words. This is a book that I will come back to again - not just for the activities, which are great, but also as a reliable peer-to-peer guide through the complexities of self-esteem. --Vanessa Rogers, Youth Work Consultant, Author and Trainer\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr style=\"color: #333333; font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; background-color: #ffffff;\"\u003e\u003cbr style=\"color: #333333; font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; background-color: #ffffff;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #333333; font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; background-color: #ffffff;\"\u003ePositive self-esteem is the cornerstone to living a fulfilling and meaningful life.
