Reaching and Teaching Children Exposed to Trauma by Barbara Sorrels, EdD (9780876593509)

What does a harmed child look like? It's the little girl on the playground who has mysterious bruises on her legs. It's the three-month-old baby boy who arches his back when you try to hold him. It's the four-year-old who bites and hits when asked to clean up. These are the faces of traumatized children. As an early childhood professional, you play a key role in the early identification of maltreatment and unhealthy patterns of development. You are also the gateway to healing. In Reaching and Teaching Children Exposed to Trauma, you will find the tools and strategies to connect with harmed children and start them on the path to healing.
