Description
This is the first book about Persona Dolls and their positive potential to be published in the UK. The suggestions and strategies outlined here are an inspiration and a guide to readers who work with the dolls in Early Years education. Persona Dolls offer an enjoyable, innovative and non-threatening way to build on children's sense of self-esteem and confidence, and to encourage them to respond to others with empathy, respect and sensitivity. The book is a practical illustrated handbook, and contains case studies of using the dolls with children and also with students and other adults.
