Including stories for: play development; senses; assessment; and, emotions, the book also covers a range of fairy stories, myths, legends and suggestions for creating stories together. It aims to improve play skills - through storytelling and storywork - of anyone working with children, especially with children 'at risk'. "This thought-provoking volume demonstrates, through good explanations of theory and examples of practice, the potential power of stories and storytelling when supporting vulnerable children." - Helen Curran, senior lecturer in SEN at Bath Spa University.
