Lisa and David/Jordi: Two Extraordinary Tales of Troubled Children Struggling to Find Their Places in the Real World
by Theodore Isaac Rubin

99 cent paperbacks! Excellent reading copy. Great reference!

Two classics in the literature of psychology, Lisa and David and Jordi, bring us into a new world -- the private world of the emotionally disturbed.

The story of two troubled adolescents, Lisa and David is about communication and love. Lisa, who can only speak in nonsense rhymes, is divided into two separate entities: Lisa and Muriel. David is a brilliant, bitter boy obsessed with time and cleanliness. Through their friendship the two learn to communicate not only with each other, but with themselves and with their doctors, slowly breaking down the barriers of mental illness. "Lisa and David has the pattern of a classic love story told with true beauty and tenderness."
--The New York Times

Jordi
is the story of a terrified, angry little boy who is cut off from the real world by his fears. Everyday objects take on menacing proportions. Jordi's fears are vividly conveyed: his growing anxiety at meeting new environments, his comfort in the familiar, and his love for Sally, the teacher who will help Jordi join the everyday world again, "[Jordi is] a source of new strength."
-- The Washington Post
