Come and tell me: Be sensible - and safe / Hollick, Helen 2007  Book
Hollick, Helen Book
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication London, Happy Cat Books, 2007.
Description 32pLight Blue Spine
Series Talking it Through
Summary/Abstract COME AND TELL ME has a simple and straightforward message that all children can easily remember and ACT UPON should the need arise - always TELL before you GO, whether with a friend or someone you don't know, always COME AND TELL. Something like 75% of child abduction is committed by someone the child vaguely knows - i.e. a neighbour, or that nice man Mummy occasionally says hello to. It's no good saying "don't go with strangers" young children don't actually know what the definition of a stranger is! Be safe, read COME AND TELL ME to your child, it's not only informative, but a lovely little story as well!

Gandhi experiment: teaching our teenagers how to become global citizens / Hepworth, Margaret 2017  Book
Hepworth, Margaret Book
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication New Delhi, Rupa Publications, 2017.
Description xxii, 151pRed spine
Summary/Abstract How do we take gandhi's messages further, as lessons that could bring about change in and around us? Perhaps a healthy dose of non-violent, solution-focused activities stemming from gandhian principles would be a more productive approach both at school and at home, especially for the citizens of tomorrow. How do we teach our youngsters non-violence is a conscious choice; that we need to rise against injustices; that 'hope in action' and 'moving from apathy to action' are of supreme importance; and that 'satyagraha' is the very foundation we stand on? This book literally equips teachers and parents with tools and strategies for peace-building. For teachers, it takes these into the rigorous academic classroom; for parents, it is a guide to how they can build better relationships with their children whilst helping them step forward into a better world. The gandhi experiment teaches teenagers global citizenship, conflict resolution, anger management, forgiveness and how to mould their thoughts for a more positive future.
