Review Shape Game_ the / Doubleday:

Art makes a difference!The same family that had such an enlightening experience in Anthony Browne's Zoo is now going to an art museum, Mom's choice for her birthday treat. But wisecracking Dad and their two sons are skeptical about how much fun this trip will be, and they're not quite sure what to make of the art. ("What on earth is that supposed to be?" asks Dad. ) But, with Mom’s help, once the boys start really looking at the paintings, they begin to find what pleasures they contain. Most of the family leave with a new appreciation of art – Dad is just never going to get it – as well as a sketchbook. On the trip home, Mom teaches the boys – and readers – a drawing game, which one of her sons (this book’s author) has been playing ever since. This new book is the product of Anthony Browne's engagement as writer-and-illustrator-in-residence at the Tate Britain in London. There he worked with a thousand children from inner-city schools, teaching literature using the resources in the gallery – and playing the shape game. In his artwork for the book, he surreally transforms, in his signature style, some famous paintings in the Tate's collection.

Review Understanding Cultural Identity in Intervention and Assessment (Multicultural Aspects of Counseling And Psychotherapy) / Sage Publications, Inc:

How can quality mental health care be provided for multicultural populations? This volume explores this question by focusing on mental health services in the United States for a variety of populations, including African Americans, Native Americans and Chinese Americans. Richard H Dana focuses first on the societal context for mental health services in the US, and the limitations of these services for multicultural populations. He then documents the cultural competences needed by practitioners if they are to provide adequate, credible and potentially beneficial services. Finally, he presents a model for effective culture-specific services that emphasizes understanding of cultural and racial identity.
