Borders, Sarah; Paisley, Pamela O.
Elementary School Guidance and Counseling, v27 n2 p131-39 Dec 1992
Examined developmental effects of bibliotherapy-based classroom guidance curriculum. Students (n=22) in experimental group participated in 12 bibliotherapy-based lessons using titles selected for literary merit; control students (n=20) participated in 12 guidance lessons. Results suggest that use of stories to help students solve problems or better understand themselves appears to have promise in promoting personal growth. (NB)
