'Milton H. Erickson pioneered the naturalistic use of stories and metaphors as one of his ingenious ways of evoking change in his patients. Now, Mills and Crowley have taken the spirit of innovation and exploration inherent in Erickson's approaches and applied it to an exciting new arena of child therapy. The result is a fluid and multifaceted method for creating metaphors that constellate a hearling array of unconscious learnings and resources within the child.'
