| 1022. The New Baby at Your House | |
|
by: Joanna Cole Amazon.com's Price: $5.99 Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description I read this book many many times to my children as they expected new siblings (we have three kids). Now I am buying it for my nephew. The reason this book is different from other "New Baby" books is that it gives young children a voice for the often strong negative feelings of having a new sibling. Young kids, preschoolers and younger, can't put words to their emotions. This book shows young children who are angry at their new baby brother or sister, feel they are being abandoned by their parents, feel ... Read More Read Reviews and Description

| 1025. Spectrum Math, Grade 7 | |
|
by: Thomas Richards Amazon.com's Price: $8.95 Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description The lessons are easy to understand. They are broken down into very simple, logical steps. My 11 year old is teaching himself these concepts with little assistance from parents. The tear out pages make it easy for kids and parents on the go. We use it for enrichment at home during vacations and weekends away from school. He is in an advanced program in sixth grade, so the 7th grade concepts correspond quite well. We should be in the eight grade book by summer. The price makes it a great ... Read More Read Reviews and Description

|
by: Peter Mayle Amazon.com's Price: $9.95 Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description I believe this is a good book. It is very helpful in teaching kids about puberty. But the problem is the book is outdated. The ages need to be lowered a little because nowadays, kids are going through puberty earlier. Girls have their period at age 9-10 on average and age 8-9 if they are early. Boys go through puberty on average at age 10-11 and age 9-10 if they are early. I know this because of things told to me from my friends from when they were younger and from myself. I personally went through puberty right ... Read More Read Reviews and Description
