key review

. . . The work lays out three rules for readers—children as well as adults—to find happiness in their lives. All three revolve around the author’s concept of people having buckets they can either fill for themselves or others. . . Opportunities to fill buckets abound. As McCloud points out, every instance of simple kindness helps to fill buckets. . . An inviting guide for children (and their parents) to cultivating happiness and helping others.

Good Book for kids and parents to read together
 

This book is a great reminder for kids and adults to be kind. To always be aware of what they say and do to others. Teaches them to be a bucket filler, not a bucket dipper. A good reminder for everyone.

Excellent Read for Small Group Guidance

I knew what I was getting in this book! Two years ago, I'd purchased three (3) of these with my own personal funds; the students that I'd shared this book with were so intrigued that they felt it was a must read for all of their peers! Growing Up with a ....... has made an excellent Small Group/ "Book Club" for my uprising middle school girls! They anticipate coming for more and I can see a sense of self -awareness and empowerment as we maneuvered through the pages!

 

The book itself was an excellent price on Amazon. However, just when I thought I would double my order so that I might gift each girl with their own personal copy, I noticed that the savings and then some, were absorbed in shipping cost. That leads me to strongly consider purchasing locally before ordering with Amazon again.

Great for Kids & Parents

Parents: Get this book! Read it with your child and talk to them about it. Talk about how it applies at home, at school, with friends, with adults, with animals... so important!

 

I use this for school counseling as a supplemental/homework for students and parents. I have the student read a chapter each with WITH their parent(s) and have them talk about what they read. This is a great way to teach parents the language that is being used at school and also helps instill some of the messages in the book.

Helped my kids grow emotionally

I love this book and think it'd be great for all people to read and have an idea of. Helps to deal with bullying, negative nellies and chose good friends. My 8 year old daughter refers to the bucket over and over when describing her friendships. It's a simple read - I read it to my 5 year old to help her gain more control over her emotions and the pouting with "that hurt my feelings!" has slowed down. We all want to feel appreciated and to learn you need to give it to get it early in life is a Great Life Lesson.
