Amazing Tool for Both Parents and Anyone working with children
The collective wisdom contained in this book allows you to look up your personal challenges with children and gives you solid, simple tools and a path that leads to ease and peace in the influence circle with the children you are caring for. Both the adult and the child are considered in loving support. I will not be without it in my practice. I am grateful for this resource.

Some new resources for teens and pre-teens
Working with teens and adolescents at-risk has always pushed me to try different methods to break through the walls and get buy-in. I love that this book has some of the past techniques but has also weaved in some more creative approaches to try.

Excellent resource for Therapists, Parents, and Kids
This is a great tool for a child therapist. What I like about this book is that it is divided into presenting concerns (anxiety, trauma, anger & explosive behaviors) as well as 4 different categories of content: activities, worksheets to reinforce activities, inspirations to provide resources, and communications to promote happy and healthy communication. The book has as many parenting resources for therapists to do in sessions with parents as it does parallel activities for the children. The family can work on the presenting concerns together. This is a must have resource!

Practical and Effective!
First time ever reading a book like this on children’s behavior and the strategies to mold them. Skimmed through it. IMPRESSIVE! Cannot wait to share what I learn. If the readers could share the wisdom shared in the book with as many as possible (even if that means translating it in different language), it would make the task of parenting much more manageable and rewarding.

Great tips for struggling parents!
This book has tons of insights from top experts. Instead of wasting time trying to google search blogs or long drawn out tips that don’t really have merit, I suggest cutting to the chase and getting this book! As a new parent, I’m super happy it’s in my toolbox 🙂
