I began my teaching career in 1974 and am since retired, although I still do much work with children as a substitute teacher, in church and with my grandchildren. For this reason, I wanted to adopt a more positive way to communicate with young children and teens.

This is a worthwhile book for families to incorporate practical techniques in helping to raise children with positive self-esteem. Bloch's book is equally helpful for teachers and others who spend their days working with children and want to encourage healthy development.
