Experiencing trauma early in life can lead to changes in a child's social and cognitive skills. Dr Sara McLean explains how to help children who are coping with sensory and emotional regulation difficulties or struggling with language, communication or memory - in this comprehensive guide for foster carers and adoptive parents.  
 
- Strong appeal for adoptive or foster parents, as well as any other parents with children who've experienced early trauma.
 
- Evidence-based strategies will make a real difference to help support children's sensory problems, language development and challenging behaviours.
 
- Groundbreaking focus on developmental difference - most existing books focus on attachment or trauma theory.
 
Market: Foster and adoptive parents and professionals who support children in foster care (e.g. social workers, foster care support workers and teachers).
