A completely revised and updated edition of the best-selling "Super
Baby Food"! Parents know that you get only one shot to feed your
baby right and Ruth Yaron has been helping parents get it right for
over 15 years. Ruth's book, "Super Baby Food", is affectionately
referred to as the baby food bible by over half a million parents
world-wide because it literally contains everything you will ever
need to know about feeding a baby and toddler. It features, for
example, a very special type of baby cereal she calls Super
Porridge. This is definitely not your mom's powdered white rice
baby cereal. We are talking about organic, whole grains and
legumes, blended and boiled at home with a bit of nutritional yeast
and/or tahini sprinkled in for an extra nutritious touch. Sound
like too much hassle? Ruth makes it simple and that's just one
reason it is truly Super Baby Food! The new edition is filled with
the same sound guidance the book has always had, and supplemented
with the latest advice from the experts, including the USDA MyPlate
and American Academy of Pediatricians recommendations. The book is
filled with new recipes, new resources, and ways to connect with
rapidly growing Super Baby Food communities online, all in an
easy-to-navigate format.
Each one of us learns in a different way. Traditional teaching
approaches don't always suit the variety of different ways people
learn-a conflict that can damage confidence and sometimes lead to
failure. The key question that faces parents and teachers is how to
help those who learn differently find long term success. In Small
Steps, Big Differences: A Toolkit for Parents of Children Who Fall
through the Cracks, author Hilary Craig challenges this question
and offers parents strategies to help. The resources provided
within this toolkit are framed around the core belief that all
children can make progress, even if traditional learning and
teaching methods in the classroom are inadequate for the way they
learn. This toolkit provides support to those parents who recognize
the unique abilities and talents in their children and who want
practical tools to enable them to learn and succeed. Hilary Craig's
experience, insight and strategies for helping children learn
effectively, provide a valuable resource to accompany classroom
learning. In this toolkit, she also addresses the four essential
skills for effective learning: memory, listening, attention, and
social skills; and strategies to develop each of these, with the
final goal to build confidence. Small Steps, Big Differences is an
invaluable resource for parents to help their children increase
their chances for learning success.
Adolescence can be a challenging period under normal
circumstances, but for five troubled boys, 1963 is a particularly
difficult year. As social worker Airdrie Thompson-Guppy and her
family settle in Waterloo, Ontario, Airdrie's life is about to
dramatically change when those five boys are placed in her home by
the Children's Aid Society.
One by one, the boys cautiously move into the home Airdrie
shares with her husband and one-year-old daughter. Lefty is the
unwitting victim of his father's anger. Bob has endured constant
abuse from his alcoholic parents. Johnny struggles academically, is
fatherless and is clearly troubled. Val sports an impish grin and
is quick to argue. Dan is a cheery lad who is easily led by others.
As Airdrie shares how she cared for the boys despite their inner
turmoil and troubled backgrounds, she provides an eye-opening
glimpse into one family form that focuses on rescuing and
protecting children from the atrocities of a dysfunctional
life.
"Airdrie's Boys" is a poignant story for anyone who cares about
children; for families who need to know that lives can change and
mend; and for all those who dedicate their professional lives to
helping children discover a better life.
When Molly's and Becca's parents can no longer afford to keep their
house, the family moves into an apartment. The parents try to hide
their pain over the loss of their home, and the girls struggle with
their emotions as they leave behind their friends, bedrooms,
school, and playhouse in the house's beautiful backyard. All too
late, Becca remembers she left her hidden treasure chest in the
tree house. Will another child find her treasure? Would that child
care about it or throw it away? As the family unpacks and adjusts
to their new lives, they find their most valuable possession-a
possession that can never be lost or taken away. With help from an
unexpected source, Becca discovers that even if she never returns
to her old house, the contents of the treasure chest will always be
hers.A story about losing what we love, the upheaval of moving, and
the surprise of delightful discoveries, "The Treasure Chest" helps
both children and adults address difficult issues in today's world.
The book deals with the generation gap which exists between elders
and youngsters and how the same can be bridged through a genuine
introspection which can help in taking remedial action in daily
life. With the fast-changing times, it is vitally important to be
able to solve these differences through self-change. The book gives
specific examples of differing mind-sets as well as unusual
situations which keep occurring and how they are ultimately solved.
The dismal relationship which existed between the parents and the
daughter ultimately changes due to self-realization. There are
specific examples highlighting the positivity and negativity of
such situations.
