Description:
"NO" is RJ's least favorite word, and he tries his best to convince his dad, his mom, and his teacher to turn "No" into "Maybe." RJ keeps arguing until his teacher suggests he try to join her classroom's "Say YES to No Club." If RJ can learn how to accept "No" for an answer and to disagree appropriately, he can add his name to the club's Star Board.
Brief description:
Julia Cook, a former school counselor and teacher, has written many books on behavior and health for children. Julia has the innate ability to enter the worldview of a child through storybooks, giving parents and educators the "what to say" and "how to say it to kids." Her ultimate goal is to make a positive difference in the lives of children, parents and educators by teaching lifelong problem-solving skills to kids.
Review Quotes:
"Julia Cook does it again! She uses her creative ideas to teach kids the skills they need to grow socially. This book teaches all people how to accept "No" for an answer in a non-threatening way. I'm excited to add this to my counseling library. Finally, the Boys Town Social Skill model is being brought to life and all of us will benefit from it." - Laurel Klaassen, M.S., School Counselor
