" Making plans.

The second part of the book considers:

" Anger

" Worry

" Helplessness

" Alcohol and tobacco.

There are full facilitator's notes and the worksheets, activities and quizzes are presented in an enjoyable and lively style.

Bob Bellhouse began his career as a teacher in mainstream schools before finding his niche working in alternative settings with marginalised young people. For the past 15 years, he has worked as a researcher and writer, specialising in education. He has an underlying interest in finding ways that help children and youth become deeply interested (engaged) in school and learning.
