Description

RJ just doesn’t know what to say when his friend Frankie tells him what a good bubble blower he is. And his head is swimming when Sam offers a suggestion on shooting goals in soccer! And what about Norma? She can’t possibly be telling RJ something positive – can she? RJ, like many children his age, struggles with accepting compliments and criticism! With help from Mom, Dad, and his teacher, RJ learns what feedback is all about. Join RJ as he tells his story of learning to respond to and accept positive feedback, and learning to interpret and grow from negative feedback. In the sixth installment of the BEST ME I Can Be! series, award-winning author Julia Cook offers a humorous, imaginative tale about RJ’s continuing adventures as he learns social skills that can help him be successful at school, with friends, and at home. Tips for educators and parents are included!

Review
“What a wonderful book for children, parents, and educators! Accepting feedback is often a difficult skill for children. This book shares one young man’s struggle with accepting compliments as well as criticism, while teaching appropriate responses that are socially acceptable and will enhance relationships. I highly recommend this book for all educators!” – Tara Eckstaine, M.Ed., Elementary Administration, K-12 Leadership Principal, Horace Mann Elementary & Bridges, Sioux Falls School District
