Book Reviews of Dibs in Search of Self
Book Review: thought provoking
Summary: 5 Stars
I found this book very thought provoking,we all need to take a step back and realise what pressures we are putting on our children today.Dibs parents particularly his mother wanted him to perform to her expectations and never allowed him to simply be himself.I thoroughly enjoyed this book ,it was written in simple terms which any lay person would understand,wasn't sure when purchasing it if it would be as the author is a highly educated therapist.Highly recommend it to anyone who is starting a career in working with children who have special needs,or indeed anyone who has an interest in psychology.
Summary of Dibs in Search of Self
The classic of child therapy. Dibs will not talk. He will not play. He has locked himself in a very special prison. And he is alone. This is the true story of how he learned to reach out for the sunshine, for life . . . how he came to the breathless discovery of himself that brought him back to the world of other children.General Books
