As a male, the author's insights into girls' social roles and interactions were a huge eye-opener. And as the father of three girls, I appreciate all the examples of specific situations girls may find themselves in, how their thinking/social conditioning may have contributed, and how they can extricate themselves. As others ...             Raising a Sensory Smart Child: The Definitive Handbook for Helping Your Child with Sensory Integration Issues36 reviews Lindsey Biel, Nancy Peske Penguin (Non-Classics), 2005 The best I have read...

Yet, people still have to listen to him. Most people in America are very negligent about their obesity and diet despite the epidemics of cancer and more diseases. Everybody has known at least a person with a severe disease, such as diabetes, we all know that the canned and boxed food ...             Issues and Ethics in the Helping Professions16 reviews Gerald Corey, Marianne Schneider Corey, ... Brooks Cole, 2006 Great Book I enjoyed this book. I enjoyed the open ended question that the writers pose at nearly the end of every chapter. The books encourages the reader to think for him/herself. The chapter on HMO was interesting. I thought that the writers provided a poignant example on why sessions and reimbursements are so limited under HMO's.             A Volcano in My Tummy: Helping Children to Handle Anger11 reviews Eliane Whitehouse, Warwick Pudney New Society Publishers, 1998 A Volcano in My Tummy It was not what I thought.

This is one of those books.

While change certainly means different ...             Helping Your Kids Cope with Divorce the Sandcastles Way24 reviews M. Gary Neuman Random House, 1999 Simply Awesome Super Book. When I met my wife, she already had a 3yr old daughter. That was 6 years ago. The book really helped me understand what my new step-daughter was coping with, even at 3/4/5 yrs old, etc. More importantly, I learned how I could be a positive support to her emotional transition and the stress placed on her. Today, I am simply "dad" and she is simply my "daughter" ... I couldn't be ...             Mythology80 reviews Edith Hamilton Back Bay Books, 1998 the gold standard Hamilton is definitely the gold standard for retelling these glorious, ancient myths. Her style is engaging and the structure of the book makes it very easy to keep track of such ridiculously branched family trees. This is much more than just a reference book...it's more like a giant Greek fairytale book.             The Skilled Helper: A Problem Management and Opportunity Development Approach to Helping6 reviews Gerard Egan Thomson, 2006 life changing This book is wonderful.

Early on this book becomes almost a bible of sorts in the mayfair history, ...             Helping Skills: Facilitating Exploration, Insight, and Action8 reviews Clara E. Hill American Psychological Association (APA), 2004 Great for Experiential Learning This book leads the reader through a three stage model of helping: exploration, insight, and action.

The problem is that I saw it was deemed a "counseling" book on the back, so I moved on for a while before I picked it up and read it.

I have to be honest, if I were to try ...             The Highly Sensitive Child: Helping Our Children Thrive When the World Overwhelms Them24 reviews Elaine Aron Broadway, 2002 Excellent, kind-hearted insight into your wonderful child!
