Juni B is a story about an adolescent honey bee that takes off on a discovery flight of self-awareness. She feels an inner calling to be different and to question the status quo. Along the way she encounters other "elevated" creatures that encourage Juni B to listen to and follow her inner voice. Her new friends had done the same and had learned some of the successful thought patterns that assisted them in their quests. These techniques are shared with Juni B and she quickly absorbs the information. As a teaching tool, this book covers the more technical "self-talk" principles rarely taught in schools or at home. This fun story can be a great tool for parents to help their "little learning machines" to develop successful attitudes of mind development. www.RobertDiCello www.JanSmallPaints.com
