  If you treat children struggling with mental health conditions such as depression or anxiety, you know that approaches designed for adults do not work with younger clients. ACT for Treating Children presents skills grounded in evidence-based acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) to help children regulate emotions and cope with the inevitable ups and downs of life, and is suitable for clinicians with no prior knowledge of or training in ACT, as well as seasoned ACT clinicians. 
   
   
   
  Written by an experienced educational and developmental psychologist, this practical clinician's guide outlines a simplified version of the ACT Hexaflex—a key component of this treatment model—called the Kidflex, to help young clients build resilience and psychological flexibility.  You'll find strategies for involving parents in treatment when appropriate, and enlisting them as 'ACT coaches' in the child’s therapy. 
   
   
   
  It can be difficult to know where to start when using ACT for individual therapy with children. That's why the skills in this go-to guide are practical and easy-to-implement, can be done with children in both face-to-face therapy and online sessions, and are simple enough for children to put into practice in any setting—whether it's at home, in school, or out in the world.

  Qin Dynasty The: A History of China

  "The Qin Dynasty: A History of China" takes you on a journey through one of the most dramatic chapters in Chinese history. From the unification of the warring states to the iron rule of Qin Shi Huang, this book dives deep into the empire that set the foundation for China's future. The First Emperor built a centralized government, enforced strict laws, and undertook grand projects like the Great Wall and his massive underground mausoleum. But his rule was also marked by fear—the infamous Burning of Books and Burying of Scholars, heavy taxation, and forced labor that pushed people to their limits. When Qin Shi Huang passed away, his successors struggled to hold the empire together, and cracks began to show. 
  As unrest spread, a single spark ignited a rebellion that would shake the empire to its core. Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, two common soldiers, defied orders and rose up, setting off a wave of uprisings across the land. The once-unbreakable Qin Dynasty faced challenge after challenge, as ambitious warlords seized the opportunity to fight for power. Among them, two figures stood out—Liu Bang, a clever and adaptable leader with a commoner's background, and Xiang Yu, a fearsome warrior whose strength was unmatched. Their rivalry would turn into a fierce battle for control over China, each determined to claim victory in their own way. 
  Through shifting alliances, brilliant strategies, and brutal clashes, the struggle between these two giants shaped the fate of an empire. As cities fell and armies clashed, their contrasting styles of leadership and personal ambitions drove them toward an inevitable showdown. Would brute force or cunning strategy decide the future of China? As tensions rose, betrayal lurked in the shadows, and the tide of war could change in an instant.

  An immersive history of our coasts and the people who have shaped them 
  The coast means something different to everyone. 
  It’s a place of pleasure and reckless pursuits, of fishing, fearless endeavours and a crashing, rugged beauty. The coast is, and always has been, our first line of defence and our springboard to other cultures. 
  Through the lens of 100 carefully selected objects, this treasure chest of a book delves into the myriad ways our coastlines have shaped, and been shaped by, our history, culture, and identity. From Roman lighthouses to rosary beads, knitted jumpers to Viking slave shackles, each object serves as a portal to a unique story. 
  Sally Coulthard’s engaging narrative goes far beyond the traditional seaside holiday to illuminate the coast’s role as a first line of defence, a site of trade, and a catalyst for cultural exchange. Readers will discover how the coast has influenced our beliefs, economy, and even our domestic lives. And, looking out to sea, this book will show how Britain’s story is anchored to those of our European neighbours and of faraway lands. 
  From one of Britain’s finest historians of material culture, this book vividly captures the enduring magic and significance of our shores. Whether it’s smugglers’ underpants or sailor’s hoaxes, whale vomit or pickled puffin – it all washes up on the British coast… 
  Threading together coastal regions and shorelines, Coulthard reveals how social history is written into nature, and how the coast keeps rewriting it. Packed with seashells, habitats and ecosystems born of oceans, this latest non-fiction is simply the best kind of treasure chest: surprising, illuminating, and impossible to put down. 
  For fans of Jane Cooper (The Lost Flock), James Rebanks (The Shepherd's View), Clara Parkes (Vanishing Fleece), Robin Wall Kimmerer (The Serviceberry), and Charles King (The Reinvention of Humanity).

  Once you've been admitted to college, the next step is to develop a strategy of how to find your best life there. But for decades, Professor James T. Hamilton has seen students struggle with their college journey. Some avoid challenging experiences, follow a path of familiar expectations, and rely on shortcuts. Others aim for perfection, ignore their friends and health, labor over what subjects to study, and neglect spending time outside the classroom. The pressure to make college valuable and interesting can feel overwhelming. 
   
   
   
  If only students could learn how others have navigated these challenges. You could ask alums to look back on friendships and college-to-career paths and provide advice. Now, you don't have to wish because You Got In! Now What? tackles the burning questions you have. 
   
   
   
  Hamilton designs lessons to help you find purpose, manage time, maintain friendships and family relationships, stay physically and mentally healthy, and choose classes, majors, and careers. Each lesson is accompanied by an essay based on research and reflections from students, alums, and professors to provide observations for how you can embrace the best that college has to offer. With these insights, you'll explore new ideas, meet people, have adventures, and most importantly, beyond just earning a degree, get an education.
