Talk So Kids Listen...and Vice Versa

We have a new book.... Actually, it is a book that first came out in 1980 but was so popular that it went through a series of printings and an afterword was added, based partly on feedback the authors were getting.

How to Talk So Kids Will Listen and Listen So Kids Will Talk was called the "parenting bible" by The Boston Globe, and The Chrstian Science Monitor said it "Will bring about more cooperation from children than all the yelling and pleading in the world." The authors, Adele Faber and Elaine Mazlish, originally felt that it wasn't their place to write a "how-to" book about something as personal as the way parents communicate with their children, but the popularity of an earlier book they wrote resulted in numerous letters from parents asking for another book that had "lessons," and "practice exercises." For some time the two experts ignored those pleas, but eventually, of course, they wrote their "how-to" book, filling it with cartoons and scripts.
