What Do We Think About Disability?; What Do We Think About Family Break-Up?

Wayland's 'What Do We Think About' series should be useful both for the classroom and for parents on a one-to-one basis. Clearly laid out with large print and colour photographs, the style is uncluttered and the facts simple. Family Break-Up seems intended mostly for children who are experiencing divorce and, therefore, emphasises the changes this may mean and the fact that divorce is not the child's fault. Some basic information about counselling and step families is included. Disability will be most useful in schools as an upbeat introduction to disabled people's lives and how they cope. Each book contains a simple index, a short glossary, notes for parents and teachers and a list of organisations that provide support. The series is beautifully produced and a pleasure to handle. Other 'issues' in the series include alcohol, bullying and death.
