Understanding Children's Drawings
Cathy A. Malchiodi
|
 |
This practical resource demonstrates how all clinicians can broaden and enhance their work
with children by integrating drawing into therapy. The book enables therapists to address
the multidimensional aspects of children's art without resorting to simplistic
explanations. Approaching drawing as a springboard for communication and change, Malchiodi
offers a wealth of guidelines for understanding the intricate messages embedded in
children's drawings and in the artmaking process itself. Topics covered include how to
assist children in making art, what questions to ask and when, and how to motivate
children who are initially resistant to drawing. Assimilating extensive research and
clinical experience, the book includes over 100 examples of children's work.
