The power of Christmas derives from the appeal of its repeated
rituals, the presumed antiquity of its traditions, and its ability
to adapt to changing cultural conditions. Christmas cards seemed
inevitable and ubiquitous, but in recent years the genre has been
visibly in decline. It is now evident that the Christmas card was a
culturally specific artifact, a distinctive way in which a
fundamental human gesture could be expressed within a commercial,
materialistic, and rapidly changing society. This stylish book
explores the imagery, graphic forms, subject matter, and
significance of Christmas cards in their chronological timeframe to
reveal an important area of American material culture. There is
much to surprise and delight. Distributed for the Bard Graduate

"Your Seven-Year-Old "is devoted to the delightful but often
anxious and withdrawn child of Seven. Although any seven-year-old
will have moments of exuberance, security, and happiness, in
general this is an age of introspection. As it begins, parents and
teachers may welcome the quiet after the tussles and tangles of
Six. But once the child of Seven starts to withdraw it's almost as
though he doesn't know where or when to stop. Seven-year-olds feel
picked on by family, friends, and teachers alike; they worry that
no one likes them; they expect every little task to prove too
difficult to handle; tears come easily at this age.
With wit and wisdom, Dr. Ames of the highly respected Gesell
Institute and Carol Chase Haber offer insights into what children
this age are feeling and thinking, and how parents can best deal
with these moody, serious Sevens.
Included in this book:
- New body awareness
- Sulking
- Concerns about fairness
- Stories from real life
- Fascination with horror, gore
- Threats of running away from home
- Life in the second grade
- Books for Sevens and the parents of Sevens
"Louise Bates Ames and her colleagues synthesize a lifetime of
observation of children, consultation, and discussion with parents.
These books will help parents to better understand their children
and will guide them through the fascinating and sometimes trying
experiences of modern parenthood."--Donald J. Cohen, M.D.,
Director, Yale Child Study Center, Irving B. Harris Professor of
Child Psychiatry, Pediatrics, and Psychology, Yale School of
Medicine
The six-year-old is a complex child, entirely different from the five-year-old. Though many of the changes are for the good -- Six is growing more mature, more independent, more daring and adventurous -- this is not necessarily an easy time for the little girl or boy. Relationships with mothers are troubled -- most of the time Six adores mother, but whenever things go wrong, it's her fault. It used to be, at Five, that she was the center of the child's universe; now, the child is the center of his own universe.
Parents need the expert advice of Drs. Ames and Ilg during this difficult year, to explain parent-child relations, friendships with peers, what six-year-olds excel at, how they see the world, what it feels like to be entering the first grade. Children need patience and understanding to help make this transition easier.
