'This a great new edition of this book on the topic of depression in children and adolescents. The authors have brought the content right up to date and the drawings are a very valuable asset in seeing the possible impact of depression on parents and children. This is a must read on this complex and sensitive topic and is easily the best parent guide on childhood depression I have seen.' Ian Goodyer, Professor Emeritus of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, University of Cambridge 'I am grateful to the authors for updating and revising this beautiful little book. I have recommended this book to parents and professionals alike for over 20 years now and will continue to do so! It is a quick, easy to read, authoritative and informative book. This book will surely assist us all, in the crucial quest for earlier, more effective, quicker support for our children and young people who are distressed or depressed.' Raphael Kelvin, Consultant Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist, MindEd Consortium Lead, UK 'In my opinion this is an excellent book which hits exactly the right note in relation to acknowledging the severity of the problem for the individual and for the family at the same time as giving hope through understanding and clarity of recommendations. It is never simplistic and does not skirt around the complexity, at the same time the reader is never lost and the voice of the authors come across through and with the young people whose experiences are detailed with the clarity of google maps. The authors are serious academics, but approach this weighty subject with an enviable lightness of touch. Parents and particularly young people who are experiencing mild, moderate, or severe depression will find answers to practical as well as complex questions in these pages. It is simply the best book there is for and about young people with the experience of depression. It should also be read by any professional working with this group for important lessons about how to talk to someone simply, but meaningfully who present with a diagnosis of depression. The best recommendation I can give is that I wish I had this book when I was 17.'
