Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Have read much better Comment: My son and I did not care for this book at all. My son has been doing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with a therapist for awhile now and find books to work on the techniques at home as well. There have been many others that were much more interesting and fun then this book. Customer Rating: Summary: Theresa Comment: Interesting book for teachers to use to promote norms against violence and bully behaviors. Fun and interactive. Customer Rating: Summary: Therapist-for 20 years Comment: I have used this book in group therapy and the kids love to role play with it. Also, in individual therapy the child usually wants to do more than one chapter (so, I must admit sometimes I cheat and do two!) I hope more of these workbooks are to come! Customer Rating: Summary: Parent and Uncle of 11 Comment: I found this book very helpful and fun. The instructions suggested to do just one chapter at a time and the kids wanted to do more than that! Customer Rating: Summary: Might be good for some Comment: This book was too much of a workbook. Not what I had expected. May help some but too rigid for my kids. More Reviews
Editorial Reviews: How can children combat negative thinking in a fun and constructive way? By applying to be a wizard of positive thinking, of course! Joann Altiero's "No More Stinking Thinking" is an easy to use workbook that provides thoughtful and simple methods for parents, teachers, and therapists to teach children to think healthily and confidently. Children will be drawn into a magical world in which they learn magic powers of positive thinking in order to defeat the evil Lord Stinker. Chapters focus on specific skills and teaching methods for addressing such topics as jumping to conclusions, looking at the big picture, critically examining the details of a situation, learning how to have more positive thoughts, and the dangers of "all or none" thinking. Children need to develop the cognitive skills to deal with daily adversity, and "No More Stinking Thinking", through its use of magical imagery and fun activities, will equip parents and other professionals with the tools to help them achieve this in imaginative and exciting ways.
