Excellent! Highly, highly reccomended.

This is an invaluable book, especially for people who are just starting out and want a few techniques up their sleeve for sessions. It could also be good for therapists who have been around for a while but want to shake things up a bit. Great interventions by many respected practitioners in play therapy. Worth the money!

A Valuable Resource

This book is a wonderful tool to use in developing groups for children and adolescents. Some of the activities are therapeutic in and of themselves, and others are useful for generating discussion on a number of topics. Innovative and easy to follow, I highly reccomend this book.
