Guest guest Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 How about have each child create theri won book called Moving:Thinking and Feeling--suing stories and drawings To: NYCCAT Sent: Thu, January 14, 2010 11:22:03 AMSubject: life books Hello, I work with children in foster care. I have a couple cases who are in the process of being adopted by foster parents. I am thinking that I would like to create a life book with these children as a means to process the transition. In researching life books, I was a little overwhelmed. I am wondering if anyone has a suggestion. Is there a particular one that people have found to be successful (and creative!)... Even if it just provides a model which I could work off of. Any feedback would be appreciated. Thank you! Sara E.
