Peter Nelmes, school leader and author of Troubled Hearts, Troubled Minds: Making Sense of the Emotional Dimension of Learning
In this book Richard Evans gives us a breakdown of what emotional literacy actually looks like in the nitty-gritty of everyday life.-¯Moreover, he presents it from the pupil's perspective and demystifies the subject in a succinct, lively and very readable way.-¯ 

The book provides a clear, structured and practical outlook on what the conversation between a school and its pupils should be like, and how this conversation can be refined and made more effective for the benefit of all.-¯ 

Independent Thinking on Emotional Literacy is a must-read for anyone who works with young people; any school that follows Richard's advice will be confident that they possess a clear grasp of the voice of their pupils, and will be making major steps to reduce any disaffection or disengagement.-¯
