Worth Publishing Developmental Movement for Children
Book SynopsisCore text for the internationally renowned Sherborne children's developmental movement programme. A new forward and new resources listed. In this practical and thought-provoking book, Veronica Sherborne shows how developmental movement has a crucial role to play in the lives of all children.

Developmental movement can be particularly beneficial to children with learning disabilities, children with physical disabilities, and children who are emotionally and behaviourly disturbed. The book offers practical help in understanding and meeting children's needs. It covers what to teach and why, and shows in detail - with the aid of marvellously expressive photographs - how to set about carrying out a planned programme of activities that are geared to the needs of specific groups.Trade Review"This invaluable book describes how movement and body work can be used to build trust, form relationship and open up ways to work towards wholeness and healing. It is an important book for all working with moivement in a therapeutic context." Mary Smail, Co-Director, Sesame Institute UK. "The movement approach'works' and meets many fundamental needs. As a medium for non-verbal communication and developing relationships, it crosses the boundaries of our muti-ethnic society." Alleyne Gainham Dip.

Lake 7 Creative The Empty Cabin: A Choose Your Path Mystery
Book SynopsisIdentify suspects, gather clues, navigate puzzles, and solve the mystery in this interactive Choose Your Path thriller. The secluded cabin resort your parents own won’t make any “best destination” lists, but it’s the perfect place to spend a summer. There’s swimming, fishing, birdwatching—and a steady stream of visitors who, from week to week, pass in and out of your life. Except for Loretta. A regular guest of Cabin 4, Loretta is an avid hiker and a stand-in grandmother to you. So when you find her cabin empty one morning, you know that something’s wrong—even if no one else believes you. You’re the detective in this puzzling mystery by acclaimed author Deb Mercier. As you work your way through the story, it’s up to you to identify suspects and gather clues, make choices that affect what happens, navigate challenging puzzles—from riddles to secret codes—and use deductive reasoning to determine what the crime was, how it happened, and whodunit. Interactive books for kids are more popular than ever. Create your own adventure with the Detective: You book series for boys and girls. You’re the main character. You make the choices. Will you solve the case?Trade Review“My heart was racing as I tried to solve the mystery. It was fun to puzzle out the connections between the characters, and I enjoyed making my own decisions about what to do at important moments in the book. Should I read someone's journal or not? Do I choose danger or logic? How much should I risk? The setting and characters seemed serene, but under that calm facade, there was danger, intrigue, and controversy. I carefully gathered the hints and clues left by the author and had so much fun solving the crime. Good news: I only died a few times!” —Christy Gove, author of Maggie the One-Eyed Peregrine Falcon “Something is really wrong at the rustic resort. A guest has vanished and it’s up to you to figure out what happened. The Empty Cabin takes readers on an edge-of-your seat adventure to figure out what’s really going on at the resort. Can you put the clues together to figure it out before it’s too late?” —Natalie Fowler, paranormal investigator, historian, and author
