Negative Positive
Title: Small but pretty much covers it...
Review: I picked this up on a whim at the Goodwill and went through it figuring that there would be some things I would have issue with since I've been working with students for over 25 years and some of my experience and beliefs are a bit on the fringe of the norm. It was refreshing to see a book dealing with the real hurts of kids that didn't dwell on the more current fad of "bullying". Sure there could have been a bit more detail and specifics but the author gave a pretty thorough overview. As I was reading it, I kept spontaneously saying, "wow, this is good, right on, etc." If you are starting out in ministry with students, you will find this extremely helpful and a great basis for doing a solid job of helping your hurting students. The structure was excellent and the resources suggested for further study very helpful.
