  • Lovely intro to nurtured heart approach for all ages
I ordered this book as soon as I discovered it and it was so essential to incorporating NHA into our home. After reading it once my super resistant 8 year old son went from hating recognition to soaking it in. The book is clearly written with beautiful fun illustrations. The character of Avi is very relatable and my son really connected to the format (following Avi through his day). Additionally, the book expresses the core of NHA and it could be helpful for someone who is struggling to grasp the concepts. Thank you Kathleen for this high quality book! ... show more

  • Beautiful message that reaches the heart of all ages!
Even my 19-yr-old college student loved this book and it made the Nurtured Heart Approach click for her.

  • Greatness of Greatness Chair
I am an advanced trainer for The Nurtured Heart Approach as is the author Kathleen Friend. This is a work of brilliance to put the concepts of The Nurtured Heart Approach® in this story telling format. I have a Greatness chair in my waiting room (I am a mental health counselor) and start sessions with parents telling me the greatness of the week of their child. I have shared this book with the families and they immediately ordered the book for themselves, that is how quickly and powerfully this book is.

  • Loving and Gentle reminders for both adults & children
Our family loves "The Greatness Chair" for it's simple, clear and loving message. It reminds adults of the negativity that can easily seep into our communication with the children we love so dearly - and the unintended impact it can have on them. Such a quick and sweet way to remind us of what matters most... seeing the gift that children are and the importance of reflecting their greatness back to them so they can see who they really are! :-) ... show more

  • Encourage your child to claim their greatness chair!
I love how simple it is and how it is so applicable. I’m a psychiatrist who sees children and so now when I see a child, s/he likes to sit in the greatness chair and tell me about their greatness. Parents also like to apply the greatness chair at home. It shifts the focus of my visits with the patients and their parents about focusing only on the negative behavior to promoting and nurturing other innate qualitative that are so easily overlooked and shadowed by the unwanted behavior. Highly recommend both books for parents and teachers! ... show more

  • Recognizing the Greatness in Every Heart
I just read my own copy of this beautiful book and have sent copies to my daughter and daughter-in-law to read with their children. This book has an important message AND is fun to read! The story flow easily and has beautiful illustrations. Children and adults alike will benefit by finding out how to recognize specific ways in which a child is great within the context of mistakes and frustrations. This book offers a real and easy- to-relate-to story with a simple and practical suggestion for how to set up a Greatness Chair routine that brightens our hearts and outlook. I highly recommend this book to all parents and grandparents. ... show more

  • Profound truth about what we are at all ages
This story is touching on many, many levels. I saw my self in Avi, the little boy who is instructed by well-meaning adults to be on time, to clean his room, and stop running so fast (he might knock someone over). As frustrated Avi falls asleep in a chair, he finds a Greatness Chair. In this chair, the magical reversal of every negative label about Avi illustrates the Greatness that Avi is. The charming illustrations are a joy. This picture book is a profound lesson for ALL ages—Bravo to Kathleen Friend. ... show more

  • Self Esteem for Children and their grownups
This little book is a delight! The premise of this children's book (for all ages) is too remember that we all can change the way we look at things. It is true that metaphorically we fall asleep to wake up! The little boy wakes up to great knowledge of managing himself with others especially those in his family. The book is simply written and can be understood by even the smallest of children. The pictures are fun to look at and the meaning will encourage one to look at life differently. ... show more
