THE POWER OF POSITIVE TALK: Words to
Help Every Child Succeed: A Guide for Parents, Teachers, and Other Caring Adults (Revised
and Updated Edition)
by Douglas Bloch, M.A., with Jon Merritt, M.S. A
Affirmations are more than just words. They can heal hurts, build self-esteem, and empower
us to face life with confidence and courage. In a world filled with stress, pressures, and
fears, children need support and encouragement from adults—and they need to know how
to affirm themselves.
This revised and updated edition of a beloved classic makes
affirmations easy to understand. Douglas Bloch leads readers
step-by-step through the process of helping kids turn off the
negative voice within and activate the powerful “yes!” voice. Kids
learn affirmations for all kinds of situations and challenges: school
and academics, athletics, facing fears, feeling angry, getting
teased, being depressed, and more. There are affirmations for
specific developmental stages (from infancy through adolescence) and for special needs
including learning = differences, behavior disorders, and family problems. Bloch also
includes affirmations to help adults deal with their own issues and better help the
children in their care. 376 pp., S/C, 6" x 9". All parents, teachers, and
counselors.
