In Lonely, Sad and Angry Barbara Ingersoll and Sam Goldstein define depression in straightforward terms and explain how to tell whether a child or adolescent is depressed.

Detailed information is provided about what parents and teachers can do to help depressed children at home, in school, and in the community.
