Utilize this book to equip yourself with effective, practical tools geared to help productively tailor your interventions around the most common types of challenging parents and families.

This book will not offer you canned or instant solutions; rather, it provides thoughtful and reflective recommendations that are practical and research-based. It is a book that every teacher, specialist, and administrator, whether beginning, mid-career or experienced, should have as a ready reference. It is clearly a "best practices" work from a distinguished educator and author.
