The classic account of a lost boy's emotional breakthrough, from a renowed child psychotherapist 'I welcome this book with all my heart' D. W. Winnicott When renowned psychotherapist Virginia Axline first encountered Dibs at his New York School, he was a little boy lost to the world. He would not talk. He would not play.
