āThe comprehensiveness of Rogersā advice is impressive and deeply involving, and the book as a whole makes for engrossing readingāeven for those whoāve never spent a single hour around a moody, temperamental child.ā ā Kirkus Review (Recommended)
Editor's Pick
āWhile compact, this guide is admirably thorough, pragmatic, and informative, sharing a wealth of Rogersās own tried-and-tested techniques.ā
Editor's Pick
"...she encourages with little snippets like: āDonāt tell them what not to do ā tell them what to doā citing research that has found that āa fascinating brain quirk is the failure to process negative commands in sentences such as no and donātā and that giving the positive action commands instead ācan lead to better outcomes.ā
