I am a part time youth worker working only 6 hrs a week. I sometimes find it hard to get conversations started within a group, especially when working with new groups or whilst out on detached. This book has turned this problem around, and if I am struggling for conversation I refer to the book and within no time I find that the ice has been broken. Not only does it work on young people, it works when working with any age group. I once had it with me whilst at my full time job, and during my break I was looking at the book. I read a few out to the person sat next to me, and the next thing I knew the entire office (20+ people aged 18 to 55) were captivated. Some of the discussions that I have had with the groups of young people I work with have been brilliant as well as amusing. The book has also given me the opportunity to gain an incite into how individuals think and also take basic communication to the next level. I would strongly recommend this book to any person that works with young people.
