The Master in Miniature
Hardy's novels continue to be justly popular and his poetry (which he considered his most important work)has worn well with the critics, but the short stories deserve a much wider audience than they have received. This collection, which contains some of his best, provides a fine introduction to the dark vision of the late Victorian master. The title story is uncharacteristically happy, a pastoral ...

Worked for my 6 year old boy!
I bought 10 days to a Less Distracted Child at the same time as 10 days to a Less Defiant Child. I decided to read less distracted first, because frankly, I was angry with my 6-year old son. He is in kindergarten, reading at a high second-grade level, can add and subtract, and was getting daily reports saying he was NOT completing his work at school. My very bright son was getting labeled a ...

Makes you Feel Good
I bought the CD of this book and truly enjoyed it. I passed it along to my daughter - the mother of our loved ADD child. The message of the book is to love and treasure your child and see his/her positives. That is good with any child, of course, but it is a reminder for parents of a child who is a little more challenging. This book helps to point out some special positives of the ADD child. ...
