About Baditude! What To Do When Life

Product Description There's hardly ANYTHING worse in Gabe's eyes than having to wait. 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 at Temple Univ. How many of you parents out there are struggling with your kiddo(s) and their BADITUDE? This homeschooling, distance learning, online teaching thing is a bringing out a whole new level of attitude from my little man, and let me tell ya...I am NOT ok with it! So instead of screaming, yelling, and threatening to take away his Nintendo time, I turned to my favorite author Julia Cook. We're all experiencing change. We are all trying to navigate into this new normal for awhile, and in order for us to have a clear mind and a flexible brain, we need to change our BADITUDE into GRATITUDE. So grateful I get to spend this time teaching my son. And so grateful for all the books from Boys Town Press that help parents like me to make this whole parenting thing a little bit easier. --Kim Gameroz, Behavioral Support SpecialistI have been loaning this out to numerous classrooms at the elementary school I am at. It has been a great hit with lots of fun carry over conversations in the classrooms --School Social Worker From the Back Cover Everything in Noodle's life stinks, or so he thinks. Homework stinks. Practice stinks. Yard work stinks. And family pictures? They REALLY stink! Author Julia Cook's newest title in the Responsible Me! series is the story of Noodle, a boy whose attitude, "or baditude," is alienating everyone around him. Can Noodle let go of his angst and try to find the brighter side of life? With help from a teacher and his mom, Noodle learns how to turn his 'have tos' into 'get tos' and his baditude into gratitude! About the Author With over a million books in print, Julia Cook, a former school counsellor, never dreamed she could evolve into an award-winning children's book author. Several years ago, Julia was searching for an effective story to teach children the difference between tattling and telling. When she couldn't find the right resource, she decided to write her own book, Tattle Tongue. Fast forward several years and she has more than 50 published books and activity guides. Julia takes top research and creativity and translates it into "kid language" that is both entertaining and engaging. Her light, humourous approach keeps kids laughing while they're learning good behaviour skills. The goal behind all of Julia's books and efforts is to actively involve people into her fun and creative stories and teach them to become life-long problem solvers.
