A Place to Talk for Boys

By Elizabeth Jarman (Featherstone, ISBN 9781408137284, 8.99)

This book considers the significant role that the physical environment can play in supporting boys' speaking and listening skills. The author, who developed the Communication Friendly Spaces Toolkit for practitioners, aims to help support inquisitive, verbal experimentation rather than just answer boys' questions. This small book is packed full of colour photographs illustrating real-life examples of how to support language development.
