Produktbeschreibung

"Lorna Czarnota has developed theories, stories and activities for professionals that have been used by me for several years with great success. The step by step outlines for group work in the Practitioner's Guide have proven invaluable to me." Susan McCullough, M.A., M.Ed., National Board Certified School Counselor (U.S.) > An anthology of traditional and original stories with commentary for using the stories to help troubled teens in need of character formation and re-formation. Also for use in general classrooms and youth activities to undergird healthy character formation in the pre-teen and teen years. Mentoring teens can be a wild dance. As adults we count and measure our movements but teens have created their own music and their own steps, they dance to the cycle of adolescent change in an effort to become one of us, though they would never admit that.

Autorenporträt

Once a teacher interested in history and narrative, Lorna Czarnota became aware of the healing power of stories when a teenage niece ran away from home twenty years ago. Czarnota's career veered in the direction of helping teens who were experiencing character-formation issues. Since then, her professional and family interests have led her to work with at-risk pre-teens and teens, and to continue assembling narratives, programming and information for use by parents, teachers, counselors, social workers, and others who work closely with youth.
