"Some very cool, new, imaginative and creative ideas for building dens."

"From the beginner to the most experienced of den builders there is something in this book for everyone."

"This book was absolutely fantastic and led to hours of creative play and imaginative fun. The book is great because unlike a lot of other children™s books, it is designed in a much more unique and relatable way, using photographs rather than just illustrations or cartoon style drawings."

Libby Nicholas and John West-Burnham˜s title Understanding Leadership: Challenges and reflections has been given a glowing review by SchoolsWeek.

Click here to read the review and here to take a look inside the book™s sample pages.

Applying research and case studies from inside and outside the educational canon, Libby and John challenge prevailing orthodoxies and invite readers to reflect on their personal understanding as the basis for translating theory into practice. All leadership behaviour is based on a number of fundamental personal assumptions about the nature of human relationships and the basis on which human organisations function. Understanding Leadership helps leaders make their implicit understanding explicit and so informs and aids development of professional practice.
