Listening is an important skill to learn. This children’s book is
written from a child’s perspective about how he can listen and learn. He can
keep quiet, watch the speaker, and think about what he is hearing. But
listening also helps you get along with others, work out problems, and learn
together. In the back, there are questions and games to reinforce the content
read in the book. Additional tips and activities are also available through a
link they provide in the back of the book. What a gentle, encouraging way to
promote listening skills!

As a mom, I often felt like all I did was tell my children "no" or "stop that," always focusing on the negative. Looking back, I wonder if the constant barrage of "no" went unheeded because I neglected to provide proactive instruction about right behavior. I love this series because it teaches respect and responsibility in a gentle yet, thought-provoking way. Each straightforward book is written in a manner young child can understand, enjoyable graphics and an activity guide for parents to reinforce lessons. No Christian content; common moral standards are taught. 35 pgs, sc. Part of the Simply ClassicalMyself and Others curriculum. ~ Deanne
