If We Could Hear the Grass Grow

This is the true story of a summer program for kids who were too troubled - too anxious, too angry, or too withdrawn to attend mainstream programs. The author's own family was in transition and her children worked as counselors at the day camp, which was held at their home. The camp became a safe place for all involved to exhibit and work through problem behaviors, Eleanor Craig wrote three other books P.S.
