Sioban has spent the last fifteen years bringing attention to non-verbal communication and the crucial role it plays in learning to hold effective conversations and changing the lives of children at risk of exclusion and social isolation. This book is a new approach to behavioural problems in children from birth to age 5. It explains how the non-verbal communication skills develop and is aimed at those people (support workers through to professionals) working with children who have behavioural, emotional, social and educational difficulties but appear to be able to talk well. Included is information about the: reasons for the current high level of these difficulties in home, school and society; relationship of lack of non-verbal communication to disordered development such as Autism, Asperger's and ADHD Generally those children with poor non-verbal skill development will have limited ability to communicate effectively in all situations and may even be 'shut down', i.e., not attempting to communicate unless they choose to. This ground-breaking approach provides a whole new perspective and presents a concrete alternative to tackling the fundamentals from which communication difficulties arise. Approx 200 pages, A5 perfect bound.
