Brighter Futures has been written by a team of clinical psychologists for parents and carers of children aged 4-11. This book tackles some of the challenges that face a child of this age in the modern world. Maybe your child is struggling to live life to the full. Perhaps worries are holding them back?

It will help you guide your child to learn the essential skills of life. [Subject: Psychology, Children's Psychology]
