Hunter House Publishers The Worried Child: Recognizing Anxiety in Children and Helping Them Heal
Anxiety in children decreases their intellectual, emotional, and social development, as well as physical health. Author Paul Foxman believes there are three interacting ingredients that contribute to anxiety in children -- biological sensitivity, personality, and stress overload. The Worried Child shows that anxiety is preventable -- or can be minimized -- by raising children's self-confidence, increasing social and self-control skills, and teaching them how to play, relax, and communicate their feelings and needs. Written for parents and teachers and anyone dealing with children, the guide covers the importance of adequate rest, sleep, and exercise and provides detailed lists, charts, skill exercises, sample dialogues, and case studies. It also presents extensive information on the various types and symptoms of anxiety disorders. Advice for educators, health care professionals, childcare workers, and psychotherapists is included along with a chapter and tutorial written specifically for children.

Katherine Guzman Helping Your Anxious Child: Fight Fears, Overcome Worries, and Cope with Anxiety in Kids
All children have fears but not all have anxieties. Time for you, as a parent, to learn how to deal with those anxieties. Being afraid of the dark is a very common fear among children. Even adults jump at shadows-ever watched a horror movie and tried to get a glass of water in dim light? From bugs to darkness to strange phenomena, children are afraid of the unknown. They have no reference point to explain these new stimuli, and they turn to the most basic instinct of human nature: fight-or-flight. Childhood fears are definitely concerning for any parent to deal with. However, things take an even more worrying turn when children have to battle the extreme. In other words, what do you do when children refuse to take part in school activities, show no enthusiasm for all the activities they normally love to do, have frequent stomach aches, or become withdrawn and irritable? The answers lie in Katherine Guzman's new book that focuses on children's anxieties. Helping Your Anxious Child is Katherine's attempt to demystify anxiousness in children, so that parents can finally bring to light the overall problem. No more do parents have to constantly question the nature of their children's behavior. After all, knowledge truly is power. In your hands, you now have the power to understand more about anxiety in children.

Penguin Publishing Group Following Ezra: What One Father Learned About Gumby, Otters, Autism, and Love From His Extraordinary Son
A heartwarming, intimate, and amusing memoir of a father's experience raising his autistic son. When Tom Fields-Meyer's son Ezra was three and showing early signs of autism, a therapist suggested that the father needed to grieve. "For what?" Tom asked. The answer: "For the child he didn't turn out to be." That moment helped strengthen the author's resolve to do just the opposite: to love the child Ezra was, a quirky boy with a fascinating and complex mind. Full of tender moments and unexpected humor, Following Ezra is the story of a father and son on a ten-year journey from Ezra's diagnosis to the dawn of his adolescence. It celebrates his growth from a toddler to an extraordinary young man, connected in his own remarkable ways to the world around him. And through Ezra's eyes, Tom--and, in turn, the reader--gains a new and beautiful understanding of the world.

Bookpod STOP Family Anxiety: A guide for anxiety disorders in parents, grandparents, teenagers and children of all ages
This breakthrough book addresses the current problem of anxiety in families and the suffering of family members from anxiety disorders - parents, school going or younger children, teenagers or grandparents. Step-by-step solutions are offered clearly and without jargon. This book provides families with three major ways of overcoming anxiety: 1. Stopping the cycle of anxiety spreading in families.

Simon & Schuster Different Learners: Identifying, Preventing, and Treating Your Child's Learning Problems
"My child is having trouble in school. What should I do?" When parents are told that their child is having difficulty in school, they often don't know where to turn for reliable information and advice. They may be confused by conflicting claims of "cures" or may mistakenly think that, because some learning problems are genetically based, they can do nothing to help. Even the terminology of learning disorders is confusing: dyslexia, dyscalculia, ADD, ADHD, autism, Asperger's syndrome, NVLD, executive function disorder--what are all these conditions, how do they differ from one another and, most important, what practical steps should parents and teachers take to remedy the situation? This comprehensive, practical guide to children's learning problems should be the first resource parents and teachers reach for when a child shows signs of difficulty in academic, social, or behavioral learning. Drawing on her decades of experience, educator Jane Healy offers understandable explanations of the various types of learning disorders. She distills the latest scientific research on brains, genes, and learning as she explains how to identify problems--even before they are diagnosed--and how to take appropriate remedial action at home, at school, and in the community.

Trumpeter Raising a Left-Brain Child in a Right-Brain World: Strategies for Helping Bright, Quirky, Socially Awkward Children to Thrive at Home and at School
Empowering advice for parents of bright, quirky, socially awkward kids--an educator's clarion call to better understand, appreciate, and nurture our "left-brainers" Does your child: - Have impressive intellectual abilities but seem puzzled by ordinary interactions with other children? - Have deep, all-absorbing interests or seemingly encyclopedic knowledge of certain subjects? - Bring home mediocre report cards, or seem disengaged at school, despite his or her obvious intelligence? If you answered "yes" to these questions, this book is for you. Author Katharine Beals uses the term "left-brain" to describe a type of child whose talents and inclinations lean heavily toward the logical, linear, analytical, and introverted side of the human psyche, as opposed to the "right brain," a term often associated with our emotional, holistic, intuitive, and extroverted side. Drawing on her research and interviews with parents and children, Beals helps parents to discover if they are raising a left-brain child, and she offers practical strategies for nurturing and supporting this type of child at school and at home. Beals also advises parents in how best to advocate for their children in today's schools, which can be baffled by and unsupportive of left-brain learning styles.
