GREAT BOOK!
Format: Paperback
This book is a must read for teachers everywhere. It changed the way I view children with discipline issues and has made my experiences with those children more manageable. I continue to refer to this book and have recommended it to many teachers along the way. The author has also written books for caregivers and parents. If you are a person who is working with or living with a young child that needs discipline more often than not or a child that is pushing your buttons to the point of frustration, READ THIS BOOK. If you are looking at this review right now it means that you are already involved with a young child with challenging behaviors so BUY THIS BOOK and read it and implement the strategies that Nelsen suggests. The change in the child's behavior starts with YOU, so please read this book. Thank you. Theresa ... show more

Excellent for beginning daycares
Format: Paperback
I was looking for a book that would help me come up with ideas for daycare. I was tired of time-out and I hated the fact that I followed the same routine day after day. This book allowed me to shake it up a little. Allowed me to get a better insight of what daycare should be about and reminded me how important these little ones are. Highly recommended for people starting up daycares! ... show more

surprisingly unexciting
Format: Paperback
Somehow I was expecting more substance but found this book to be very general and superficial. I'm still interested in this approach but have gained more insight and information online from articles of this title or under the term, "Positive Guidance."
