Hear the Play: Listening to the Whole Child

This three-book series moves from attention, to interpretation, to faithful care. Book One teaches adults to slow down and notice how children communicate through play, movement, silence, gesture, and story. Book Two helps readers discern what those expressions may reveal without rushing to labels or conclusions. Book Three guides families, churches, teachers, and caregivers in responding with wise, embodied care, honoring Jesus’ welcome of children in Mark 10:14.
