My Right to Play: A Child With Complex Needs (Debating Play)

"Robert Orr... has achieved the balance of evidenced-based practice with the integration of the concept of ordinariness. This work is a must for not only those working with children with an expressed extra special need, but also all nurses who work with people who have a learning disability." Helen Laverty, Health Lecturer, University of Nottingham 
 This lively and accessible book provides a take on life from the perspective of a child who has no sight and no speech and who uses a wheelchair because of physical disabilities. The book: 
<ul>
<li>Offers a glimpse into the thoughts of such a child, recognizing that family and support workers sometimes get things right and sometimes don't</li> <li>Enables people new to disability work to avoid pitfalls and take short cuts in becoming interesting and useful to a child with complex needs</li> <li>Examines the puzzling behaviour often encountered when working with children who are dependent on others for the ordinary aspects of daily life</li>
</ul>Compassionate, sympathetic and down to earth, My Right to Play is invaluable reading for a wide ranging audience including the families of profoundly disabled children, teachers, carers, therapists and medical staff.
