Middle Childhood to Middle Adolescence is a new and integrative resource for practitioners who work with children from late elementary through high school. This unique text focuses specifically on ages 8 to 18, providing readers with an illustrative case study in each chapter. Developmental theories are thoughtfully integrated using an applied developmental-contextual approach - drawing attention to the diverse contexts of family, school, and community.

Divided into two parts - middle childhood and adolescence - this book has been applauded by a leading child development scholar: "The importance of this text extends beyond the superb and insightful integration of theory, research, and application that fills its pages. This text is also a model for how developmental science should be structured and enacted in the 21st century."
