Review of 'The Theory and Practice of Promoting Emotional Literacy in Your School', Gillian Shotton, 2003, Ainsdale: Positive Behaviour Management £7.99 + £0.66 postage, 29 pp.

This booklet is number 13 of 15 in the "Pastoral Management Series" from Positive Behaviour Management. The main purposes of the booklet are to provide an overview of emotional literacy, clear examples of how emotional literacy input has benefited that will facilitate the creation and implementation of a small group intervention programme. It will not have been easy to convey the essence of emotional literacy and also practical methods for school utilisation in only 29 pages, but Shotton has admirably achieved this objective.
