The Behavior Survival Guide for Kids: How to Make Good Choices and Stay Out of Trouble
Grade 4-7-"They think I'm slow or stupid, but I'm not." "They tease me." "I feel dumb." "It stinks." These are the words of children with behavioral issues and disorders whom the author has known. Written with empathy toward his audience, McIntyre explains what behavior disorders are and discusses programs designed for children with learning disabilities. He also offers advice on dealing with feelings; ways to get along with family, friends, and teachers; and skills for dealing with difficult people. Topics and a variety of scenarios are clearly presented, with text boxes and cartoons interspersed throughout. A sensitive and thorough title for all collections.Rebecca Sheridan, Easttown Library & Information Center, Berwyn, PACopyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.
