This is a programme to train young people how to be therapeutic mentors to younger children, with mentoring workshop outlines and creative, therapeutic activities to use. Peer mentoring is mutually beneficial: being a mentor can help young people in conflict situations who may not engage easily with adult intervention, and it also has therapeutic benefits for younger mentees. As well as training sessions for the mentors, the book provides outlines of mentoring workshops on issues such as bullying, conflict with parents, parental separation and change and transition. Creative ideas to use in the sessions, such as games, relaxation techniques, role play, and reframing activities, are provided, with photocopiable materials. Suitable for use with mentors aged 14-18 and mentees aged 9-13, this is an ideal resource to train peer mentors in therapeutic mentoring and for mentors to use in their sessions.

When Charlie wishes on a star in a last-ditch effort to wake her comatose twin brother, she gets more than a miracle-she gets a god. Seventeen year-old Charlotte "Charlie" Reese is out of ideas and short on hope. She has one weekend to wake her brother up before the doctors pull the plug. A falling star leads her to the miracle she is waiting for-a young man unconscious in the woods. But in the wake of this mysterious stranger, who Charlie names Icarus, demons appear lurking in the shadows of our world. Soon both of their lives hang in the balance in an ancient feud between gods and the underworld, and recovering Icarus's memories reveals a secret that Charlie never knew she had: The twins are the first Demigods to be born in the past two-thousand years, and both Heaven and Hell want them dead.
