Bibliotherapy with Preschool Children: A Case Study

Abstract

Bibliotherapy is based on influencing the behavior and attitudes of written sources that people read, shaping or changing by their effects. Bibliotherapy can be used to help individuals cope with people’s problems by gaining inside themselves through books. Bibliotherapy can be divided into two classes as “clinical” and “developmental bibliotherapy”. Clinical bibliotherapy is used by mental health professionals in problem situations. Developmental bibliotherapy is also used by specialists or trainers to prevent or address daily life problems that may be encountered during normal development. The aim of this study is to theoretically evaluate and exemplify the use of bibliotherapy with preschool children.
