"Practical Research with Children is a highly informative text regarding the various methods that can be employed to investigate issues within Developmental Psychology. Not only will readers gain knowledge of individual methods, but they may also succeed in learning how unique methods can complement each other and consider a mixed or multi methods approach to their research...This book is no doubt a valuable addition to anyone who conducts research within the field of Developmental Psychology. However it should not be pigeon holed to only Developmental researchers as it could offer a useful perspective and great deal of knowledge to those who investigate issues surrounding children in other areas of psychology." — Tamsyn Hawken, Psychology Teaching Review
