Child Psych Material Recommendations

[laurarose8473839]

Hi, everyone. I am currently an undergrad student in a psych program. I plan to become a child & adolescent therapist. No university in my state has anything specifically geared toward children or adolescent except for 1 class each in the program I’m in. I can get a specialty in this area once I enter the grad program in 2 years, but I want to continue learning about this area on my own. Are there any papers, books, or other materials y’all would recommend?

@laurarose8473839 This is more geared towards the early years, particularly regarding education, but I found it excellent as an overview of the current theories on child psychology: Developmental Psychology and Early Childhood Education by David Whitebread
