Understanding Children’s Behaviour: Learning to be with others in the Early Years

Professional Books
By Penny Tassoni (Featherstone, £17.99)

Penny Tassoni’s latest book (out on 20 September) is a practical and accessible handbook for practitioners looking to support children’s behaviour by focusing on their personal and social skills, with a useful A-Z problem-solving section for dealing with unwanted behaviours. Tackling the tendency to ‘manage’ behaviour rather than investigate why it is taking place, Penny explores behaviour from a child-centred point of view and shows how children learn to be with others, and how adults can support this.
