Time to Listen to Children will be a valuable resource for social workers, teachers and counsellors in training and for all professionals who wish to adopt a skilled, reflective and active approach to their work with children.'The authors.. have compiled with great care and love a varied selection of work by 16 different authors, all of whose work focuses on the concerns of children and who advocate listening to children as people with rights, opinions and ideas, equal to, but different from, those of adults. Beautifully compiled.' - RACE Multicultural Journal No. 19 Summer 1999
