Hagar, Kristy, Sam Goldstein, and Robert Brookes. Seven Steps to Improve Your Child's Social Skills: Teaching Social Skills for Children 5-14. Plantation , FL: Specialty Press, 2006. ISBN 1-886941-60-2. $18.95. 100 pp.

Designed for parents whose children have trouble keeping friends, this clear and readable 11x8 ½" book is both informative and practical. Children's difficulties are analyzed and assessed, even sample dialog is provided, giving adults real means for helping out. In terms of content, the authors provide solid value and solid advice. The large, varied format presents well and is easy on tired parents' eyes.

A. Allison, October 2006
