Life Story Books for Adopted Children

Nurturing Attachments
Nurturing Attachments combines the experience and wisdom of parents and carers with that of professionals to provide support and practical guidance for foster and adoptive parents looking after children with insecure attachment relationships. It gives an overview of attachment theory and a step-by-step model of parenting which provides the reader with a tried-and-tested framework for developing resilience and emotional growth. Featuring throughout are the stories of Catherine, Zoe, Marcus and Luke, four fictional children in foster care or adoptive homes, who are used to illustrate the ideas and strategies described.

This is an essential guide for adoptive and foster parents, professionals including health and social care practitioners, clinical psychologists, child care professionals, and lecturers and students in this field.

Marketing in the Boardroom
It's no secret: marketing punches below its weight in the Boardroom. CEOs and other board members perceive that marketers lack commercial credibility when compared to their peers. Marketing in the Boardroom is an important book for any aspiring marketers who are moving up the career ladder. It is also an important book for their organizations; particularly those that struggle to understand and give the requisite support and emphasis to the role of marketing in developing the new products, new markets and new strategies that lie at the heart of business renewal.
The Black Mountains
Black Mountains dominate the Somerset town of Hillsbridge, and beneath their brooding shadow the Hall family – Charlotte, James and their seven children – carry on an earthy, turbulent existence. Independent spirits, the Halls are united by strong family values, divided by the conflicts of a community caught up in the changing patterns of industrial progress. Then the dark shadows of impending war fall upon this vivid family canvas, and the Halls are forced to reaffirm their most basic beliefs. Janet Tanner has created a memorable and moving saga of love, hate, happiness and heartbreak on the slopes of The Black Mountains. ‘Sensitive and exceptionally polished’ Manchester Evening News
