We can not raise a happy child if we are constantly screaming threats at them. No parent sets out to hurt their child, but this type of parenting does just that. To raise a happy child that wants to behave, you need to retrain yourself first. You need to change the way you think and react to their behavior. You need to understand your triggers and heal yourself. Only then you can begin to heal your relationship with your children.

A unique and original fictional account of a well-known Bible story. Jesus Feeds a Big Crowd is narrated from the point of view of the boy who provided Jesus with the loaves and fishes that were used to feed the 5,000. It is always a pleasure to present children with a different take on a bible story they may have heard many times before. Recommended for use in Sunday schools, schools, and for personal use. The book will be mainly enjoyed by children aged four-to-eight years. Kids may need to hide it from their parents though, as many adults enjoy this one too.

Critic Reviews
"On any given day, around 30 percent of my patients have anxiety related symptoms. The simplicity and completeness of the explanations and treatment of anxiety given in this book is remarkable. Defining the cause, treating the core symptoms, and most importantly bringing it to a child's level accompanied by wonderful illustrations, is an incredible feat. I will definitely use this book in my practice." (Zev Ash, M.D. F.A.A.P., pediatrician)
"Anxiety is, of course, a complicated neuro-physiological process but it has been reduced to understandable terms in this brilliantly illustrated book for children. I would go even further and say that there are adults who could benefit from the straightforward approach." (Rick Ritter, MSW, author of Coping with Physical Loss and Disability)

Great
Very informative. Thank you for this. My 6 year old daughter struggles with anxiety and she was listening to this with me. I personally did not appreciate how the narrator made such very long pauses every time she got to the end of a sentence.
