Recenzii

"Bob Bertolino has the brain of an academic and the soul of a caregiver. This remarkable book should be required reading for anyone working on the front lines of out-of-home placement. What magicians do with props, Bob does with words. He teaches us readers to use them in exceptionally creative ways that enable our most vulnerable children to recognize, build upon, and develop strengths for long term happiness. I wish I had read this book when I first started working in residential care. After reading this transformative book, I am left with one pressing, solution focused question: "Bob, why aren't you writing more books?""-- Charlie Appelstein, MSW, Author of No Such Things As a Bad Kid and The Gus Chronicles
