Description

Noodle is having a rough day. Or series of days. And so much in his life just stinks! Homework stinks. Practice stinks. Yard work stinks. And family pictures? They REALLY stink! Author Julia Cook’s newest title, the next in the Responsible Me! series, follows Noodle through a day where everything just stinks! Luckily, Noodle’s mom and teacher are there to help him understand how his bad attitude, or “baditude,” is affecting his mood and those around him. Even his friends are starting to avoid him! If only he can stop looking at everything so negatively, more positive results will follow! Join Noodle as he learns to turn his “I HAVE TO’S” into “I GET TO’S”, his frown into a smile, and his “baditude” into “gratitude”!

Review
“In another brilliant children’s resource, Julia Cook has creatively woven the potential academic and social consequences of negativity into Baditude. ‘Noodle’s’ attention to typical childhood frustrations makes this book realistic and identifiable to almost any young child. With an overarching theme of personal empowerment, Julia’s characters clearly support children in identifying the benefits of turning ‘Baditude’ into ‘Gratitude.’”- Sarah I. Springer, PhD, LPC, ACS; Certified School Counselor Assistant Professor, Counseling Psychology at Temple University
