 When My Worries Get Too Big! A Relaxation Book for Children Who Live with Anxiety $18.95 I bought this for my 5-year-old son, and I thought he would throw it across the room, because he often rejects my attempts at "talking through" his anger. But he was fascinated and seemed quite relieved to have been given a strategy to help himself. He often speaks in terms of feeling like a "5" or a "3". It is, for me, a helpful context for understanding his moods. That night, after we first worked through the book, he wrote me a picture and a card saying, "Thank you, Mama. I love the book." I am now about to check out some of the other books by this author. Although these books are published by the "autism- asberger" society, or some such organization, I think it is invaluable for any child who struggles with feelings that feel too big...  Pioneer Microfiber Photo Memory Cleaning Cloth $3.99 Microfiber 8-Inch by 8-Inch cloth removes smudges, fingerprints, lint, dirt and dust.  How Big Can You Get?: The Music Of Cab Calloway $9.49 The band sounds great on this disc. The arrangments are great and guaranteed to get your feet tapping! And lets face it,that is what swing music is all about. Tapping the feet! But, then the vocals come on and the singer just doesn't have a strong enough voice to pull it off. In my opinion, it hurts the overall impact of the recording. But if it gets a few people into the music of Cab Calloway, then good!! The songs are fun and deserve to be heard again. Now get out your copy of Stormy Weather and watch Cab in all his glory! |
