Most Highly Recommended for Teachers and Parents Alike - American Author's Association Review

Carrying on with her series on ethics and behavior, Humphrey presents the reader with twenty-six more scenarios that address problematic issues in a child's life. The author, as in the other books in the series, follows each "parable" with a number of questions that are designed to promote discussion and problem resolution. In this offering, however, Humphrey also lists in the Table of Contents the specific issue addressed in each parable (e.g. Fair Play, Empathy, Attitude, Adapting to Change). This addition makes this book an invaluable tool for a teacher or parent who needs help addressing a specific behavioral or ethical topic. Most highly recommended for any teacher, parent, or grandparent interested in pursuing lively discussions regarding ethics and behavior with children. Karl L.
