American Psychological Association Too Nice
Amy's tired of giving her things away, tired of getting stuck with the jobs nobody wants, and tired of feeling angry and sad. "You're too nice," says Amy's best friend, Kate. Amy's not sure what "too nice" means, but she sure knows how it feels: rotten. She's tired of giving her things away, tired of getting stuck with the jobs nobody wants, and tired of feeling angry and sad. But with a little help and practice, she starts learning how to be friendly yet take care of herself at the same time. Soon she discovers that when she stops being "Too Nice Amy," everyone is happier, including Amy! Includes a Dear Reader introduction:Many kids are just like Amy in this book. Even I was just like Amy when I was her age. Kids sometimes think that if they don't do what other people ask, then others won't like them anymore or will get mad. But as Amy discovers (and you have probably noticed in your own life), it just isn't possible to please everybody. It may even seem that the more you try, the more other people get annoyed at you or take advantage of you. And you end up feeling sad, angry, resentful, or just plain tired.

Also available in Spanish Qué Hacer Cuando te Preocupas Demasiado ISBN 978-1-4338-3866-8From the Note to Parents:If you are the parent or caregiver of an anxious child, you know what it feels like to be held hostage. So does your child. Children who worry too much are held captive by their fears. They go to great lengths to avoid frightening situations, and ask the same anxiety-based questions over and over again. Yet the answers give them virtually no relief. Parents and caregivers find themselves spending huge amounts of time reassuring, coaxing, accommodating, and doing whatever else they can think of to minimize their child’s distress. But it doesn’t work. The anxiety remains in control. As you have undoubtedly discovered, simply telling an anxious child to stop worrying doesn’t help at all. Nor does applying adult logic, or allowing your child to avoid feared situations, or offering reassurance every time the fears are expressed.

American Psychological Association Qué Hacer Cuando te Preocupas Demasiado: Guía para Niños para Superar la Ansiedad / What to Do When You Worry Too Much (Spanish Edition)
Ganador del premio Gold NAPPA (Premios nacionales de publicaciones para padres) ¿Sabías que las preocupaciones son como los tomates? No, no puedes comerlas, pero puedes hacerlas crecer, simplemente hay que prestarle atención. Si tus preocupaciones han crecido de tal manera que te molestan casi todos los días, entonces este libro es para ti. Qué hacer cuando te preocupas demasiado sirve para guiar a padres y a niños a través de las técnicas cognitivo-conductuales más usadas en el tratamiento para la ansiedad. Las metáforas e ilustraciones en este libro hacen que los conceptos y estrategias sean más fáciles de entender, mientras que los pasos que muestran cómo hacerlo y las indicaciones para dibujar y escribir ayudan a los niños a dominar las nuevas habilidades relacionadas con la reducción de la ansiedad. Este interactivo libro para la autoayuda es el mejor recurso para educar, motivar y capacitar a los niños para que superen sus preocupaciones excesivas. Atractivo, alentador y fácil de seguir, este libro educa, motiva y capacita a los niños para trabajar hacia el cambio. Incluye una nota para los padres por la psicóloga y autora Dawn Huebner, PhD. Sacado de la Nota para los padres: Si es padre o cuidador de un niño con ansiedad, sabe lo que se siente ser un rehén. Su hijo también lo sabe. Los niños que se preocupan demasiado son prisioneros de sus miedos. Hacen todo lo posible por evitar situaciones que les causan miedo y hacen las mismas preguntas de ansiedad una y otra vez. Sin embargo, las respuestas no les dan prácticamente ningún alivio. Los padres y cuidadores pasan mucho tiempo tranquilizando, persuadiendo, acomodando y haciendo cualquier otra cosa que se les ocurra para minimizar la angustia de su hijo. Pero no funciona. La ansiedad sigue teniendo el control. Como indudablemente ha descubierto, decir simplemente a un niño ansioso que deje de preocuparse no ayuda en absoluto. Tampoco ayuda aplicar lógica de adultos, ni permitir que su hijo evite las situaciones temidas, ni consolándolo cada vez que exprese sus temores. Este libro forma parte de la serie de guías “QUÉ HACER” para niños (What-to-Do Guides for Kids®) de Magination Press e incluye una "Introducción para padres y cuidadores". What-to-Guides for Kids® son libros interactivos de autoayuda diseñados para guiar a niños de 6 a 12 años y a sus padres a través de las técnicas cognitivo-conductuales más utilizadas en el tratamiento de diversas preocupaciones psicológicas. Atractivos, alentadores y fáciles de seguir, estos libros educan, motivan y capacitan a los niños para trabajar hacia el cambio.

American Psychological Association Rewards for Kids!: Ready-to-Use Charts & Activities for Positive Parenting
Learning Magazine’s Teacher’s Choice Award for the Family iParenting Media Award Foreword Magazine Book of the Year (Bronze) Independent Publishers Book of the Year Award (finalist) “A cleareyed and informative look at the trials of parenting, this readable book presents one solution customized for a bevy of situations, providing a template to tackle practically every challenge through this new lens.” —Kirkus Reviews In Rewards for Kids! experienced psychologist and child-development expert Virginia Shiller makes it easy for parents to design and carry out reward programs to address their children's individual needs. Detailed "how-to" instructions, together with twenty-one lively sample reward plans that incorporate behavioral principles, guide parents through the steps for success. Sample plans address common behavior problems such as bedtime procrastination and sleep disturbances, getting along with siblings or friends, getting ready for school and other events on time, doing chores, and completing homework without fuss. Shiller recommends that reward plans be accompanied by plenty of age-appropriate parent-child dialogue about problem behaviors, and the book clearly and persuasively distinguishes between rewards and bribery. Rewards for Kids! also provides a wealth of ideas about enhancing the effectiveness of reward plans by including creative interventions such as role-play, story-telling, and humorous reminders. Readers easily grasp how reward plans can be used to empower children rather than simply to achieve control. The many imaginative pull-out charts, awards, and certificates, designed for children aged 3–12, can be personalized by coloring and decorating them with photos and stickers. The large variety of reproducible charts makes this a valuable resource for professionals as well as parents.
