'This book is essential reading for all practitioners who need to access the views, thoughts and perspectives of children within the course of their professional lives... In brief, this is an excellent book, to be recommended to many.'

- Early Years Journal

'This is an important time for the children's sector workforce, and social workers in particular, to be seriously reconsidering listening to children both in theory and most importantly in practice. This book proves a good overview of the theory and the practice of children's rights, legislation and policy, child development, intervention, communication methods and strategies.'

- Children & Young People Now

'This is an interesting well-written and thoroughly researched book. A good read, accessible, interesting, informative and thought provoking - what more could you ask of a book.'

- Counselling Children and Young People
