Why read it?
1 author picked When the Adults Change, Everything Changes as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Coming out of the lecture hall I remember thinking - this man speaks sense. This relates to the years of PRU (Pupil Referral Unit) and AP (Alternative Provision) experience I'd had up to that point. This book, an accumulation of years of experience, gives some practical nuggets to take away as well as some overall school-wide approaches.
From Adele's list on The best books to shift challenging behaviour in schools.
