Explains asthma in simple language and a positive way

My daughter who is 7 has recently been diagnosed with moderate ashtma. (as have I about 6 months ago). The respiratory tech gave Hannah this book after she had some breathing tests. She took it to school and read it to her class to share information about asthma. She sometimes gets a bit down about having it, but I explain to her that allergies are usually the cause or trigger (cat dander, dogs and dust mites for her and me!) and we try to take our puffers and medicine to keep us healthy.

This book shows Bravo the horse who used to be out of breath and not able to run fast, doing great and winning the race when he takes care of his asthma. A very positive book and has helped our family in learning how to live with asthma.

Encouragement and Acceptance

I frequently look for positive ways to talk about my son's special needs with his sister. She sometimes has a tough time accepting his differences. "Way to Go, Alex" is a great way to open the conversation about trying to do our best, and being proud of what we can achieve. This story helps my daughter understand that feelings of frustration can be turned around to a more positive approach to the challenges she faces having a brother with learning and physical disabilities. The story accurately depicts how difficult it is for a child to understand and cope with a sibling's disabilities. It is a wonderful introduction to Special Olympics. I hope many parents share the story with their children and discuss how important an encouraging, supportive, and accepting community is for people of all abilities.

Way To Go Grad!

This is a very good book that can be used to encourage any graduating student. I am giving a few copies to my graduating seniors. I'm having a hard time locating additional copies of the book. ... Anyway, the book offers several pages of Wisdom, Advice, Encouraging Poems as well as Biblical Scriptures. It also offer great advice on joining the work force and coping with bosess as well as co-workers. I recommend it to anyone who mentors or teaches young people.

Way to Go: Sadness, Euphoria and the Fremantle Dockers

For the true Dockers fan

A greatly amusing account of the first eight or so years of the Fremantle Dockers, Way to Go details both the highs and the lows of both the Dockers and being a Dockers supporter. Containing columns from Price's weekly Left Field reports in The Australian newspaper as well as new material, the book explains how challenging it is to be a Dockers supporter on occasion.

Price reflects on the spectacular stuff-ups and the glorious moments of Australian Rules football that the Dockers have provided over the years, including such moments as Tony Modra's addition to the side; every time Clive stepped onto the field (good and bad); the poor handling of the Drum sacking; and the first time the Dockers beat the Eagles.

If you are a Dockers fan you will be entertained with memories: you'll certainly laugh and you might even cry. If you aren't a Dockers fan, read and you'll understand the passion of these supporters.

A book my son and I both agree on

I have a son who's three years old, and who tries his best every night to stay up as long as possible so that he doesn't miss anything exciting. This sweet book is about Wee Puppy, who's got just the same ambition. He sneaks out of bed, has some ice cream, watches the late late movie...and finds out the next day why puppies (and children) need their sleep. My son loves this book, and so do I. The illustrations are wonderful, and I recommend this book to anyone who's looking for something fun to read to a young child (especially one who likes to try and stay up late!)

Everyone knows that going to the doctor can be a little scary. For a small child who may not understand why being poked, prodded, and jabbed with a needle is necessary, the prospect is especially daunting. Enter Angus the Answer Dog, a Yorkie pup who loves to answer all kinds of questions about growing up (as seen in other titles in the wonderfully appealing What to Expect series for young children, including What to Expect When the Baby Sitter Comes and What to Expect When You Use the Potty). Angus takes young readers by the hand and guides them through a visit to the doctor's office. Each two-page spread asks a question: "Why do I have to go to the doctor?" "Why does the doctor push down on my tummy?" "What's a shot?" "Do I need one?" and more, each question anticipating the next. Then, in an extremely calm and reassuring manner, Angus answers each question. Parents and children alike will welcome the honest, clear explanations about staying healthy and will enjoy the games and ideas in each section.

Heidi Murkoff, coauthor of the bestselling pregnancy book, What to Expect When You're Expecting, creates a perfect read-aloud book to ease the concerns of kids and their parents. Laura Rader's cartoonish illustrations are fun and reassuring, contributing to the lighthearted tone of the book. (Ages 2 to 5) --Emilie Coulter

Wonderful Resource for Early Childhood Childcare Providers

As a Child Care Nurse Consultant, I provide health and education training for numerous childcare centers and homes. This book is a wonderful resource for easing the fears of young children when a docotor's appointment approaches. The exercises in the book are great fun and an excellent opportunity for learning!

What You Can Learn From Things that Go Wrong : a Guidebook to the ROOT CAUSES of Failure

Published in Paperback by C. Robert Nelms (01 January, 1996)

Amazon base price: $35.00

Curiosity will gain you knowledge

With enough innate curiosity about the world we live in, this is the only book an individual needs to be able to perform a root cause failure analysis. Chocked full of personal life experience anecdotes, the author eloquently guides us to how he arrives at the steps necessary to learn from things that go wrong. Leave your calculator in its case; this book reads like a novel and is not dry scientific stuff, but you will find yourself referring to it countless times as you proceed with your own failure analysis. On a deeper, subtler level, this is also the story about a man using his own "tools" to discover more about himself and the world around him.
