Dr. Ross Greene, a distinguished clinician and pioneer in the treatment of kids with social, emotional, and behavioral challenges, has worked with thousands of explosive children, and he has good news: these kids aren't attentionseeking, manipulative, or unmotivated, and their parents aren't passive, permissive disciplinarians. Rather, explosive kids are lacking some crucial skills in the domains of flexibility/adaptability, frustration tolerance, and problem solving, and they require a different approach.

Is your child wild about dinosaurs? No one quite understands why so many kids go through a “dinosaur phase.” It may be because they are extinct and although they may have been huge and hungry, they are harmless to a child since they no longer exist. These mysterious and powerful creatures interest many children and are a fun and exciting way to introduce relaxation, mindfulness and meditation. There is nothing as powerful as this to help refocus, regulate and relax the human brain.

Red is an oak tree who is many rings old. Red is the neighborhood "wishtree" - people write their wishes on pieces of cloth and tie them to Red's branches. Along with her crow friend, Bongo, and other animals who seek refuge in Red's hollows, this "wishtree" watches over the neighborhood. You might say Red has seen it all. Until a new family moves in. Not everyone is welcoming, and Red's experiences as a wishtree are more important than ever.

Resumen del Editor
"Why, mom? ... And why?"
No matter what you answer, kids will just ask why again.
Is your child full of questions? Do you find these questions to test your own knowledge?
Well, look no further: Now you have the answers, and they are not boring ones!
Encourage your child’s imagination through these fairy tales for children. They will answer some of the common questions that we parents are often asked.
“Mom, why does the rainbow form in the sky?”
“Dad, why do animals have tails?”
Many questions are difficult to answer, while others require you to search your memory for answers in times gone by; sometimes it seems impossible to give an answer. You may be tempted to give the famous answers, “because I said so” or “that’s just the way it is”.
A child in this questioning stage is looking for an answer that is thorough, but not too complicated or scientific. This makes it even more difficult to answer.
The Book of Why for Curious Kids was created specifically to solve this problem. This collection of 42 fairy tales will help you give fun and creative answers to your child’s strangest questions, encouraging him to develop his imagination.
These fairy tales will:
- Fuel your little one’s curiosity in a fun and creative way
- Help your child learn new concepts
- Help your child establish balanced relationships with other children
- Teach basic social skills and concepts like sharing, friendship, jealousy, and manners
So, what are you waiting for? Invite your child into your lap, learn new things, and grow emotionally!

Combined into one volume, this is the definitive collection of Tolkien's five acclaimed modern classic 'fairie' tales in the vein of The Hobbit, read by Derek Jacobi. The five tales are written with the same skill, quality and charm that made The Hobbit a classic. Largely overlooked because of their short lengths, they are joined here in one volume which reaffirms Tolkien's place as a master storyteller for listeners young and old.

Hardly a day passes without Trille and Lena inventing some kind of adventure that often ends in trouble. Whether it's coaxing a cow onto a boat or tobogganing down the steepest and iciest hill with a chicken, there is always a thrill - and sometimes an injury - to be had. Trille loves to share everything with Lena, even Auntie Granny's waffles, which make everything just perfect. But when Lena has to move away, and Auntie Granny leaves the world, it sometimes seems nothing will ever be right again.

Speed and self-confidence, that’s Astrid’s motto. Nicknamed “the little thunderbolt,” she loves to spend her days racing down the hillside on her sled, singing loudly as she goes, and visiting Gunnvald, her grumpy, septuagenarian best friend and godfather, who makes hot chocolate from real chocolate bars. She just wishes there were other children to share her hair-raising adventures with. But Astrid’s world is about to be turned upside down by two startling arrivals to the village of Glimmerdal: first a new family, then a mysterious, towering woman who everyone seems to know.

In a battle against the Turks, Viscount Medardo of Terralba is bissected lengthwise by a cannonball. One half of him returns to his feudal estate and takes up a lavishly evil life.
