Publisher's Summary
Supporting kids with challenging behaviours can be difficult – but change the narrative, and you may be surprised.
Most children will behave in challenging ways at some point, but persistent and difficult-to-deal-with behaviours can have a negative impact on relationships and learning.
For educators, health professionals and caregivers who find traditional methods of behaviour management ineffective, Challenging the Story offers a fresh perspective and actionable strategies for positive change.
Listen to this audiobook to:
• Approach challenging behaviours with curiosity and compassion
• Apply innovative, proven strategies to encourage positive behaviour while treating kids with respect and kindness
• Build strong bonds with children and create an environment of trust and mutual respect
• Improve your skills in dealing with difficult behaviours in a variety of scenarios
• Guide children towards significant, lasting change and a new, more positive narrative for a brighter future

‘Challenging the Story is a wonderful, engaging and captivating book that skilfully delves into the world of neurodivergent children. The ingenious use of characters not only brings the story to life but also serves as a powerful tool to educate readers about neurodiversity and how to support neurodivergent children in their learning environments – a must- read for educators, teachers, therapists and anyone involved in working with children.’
