- Book 5 of 5: Choose Your Own Attitude Book
In life, sometimes things don't go our way, but being able to stay calm in stressful or unexpected situations is like a superpower! It helps us think straight. It helps us keep things in perspective. It can even help us to laugh and move on. In this choose-your-own-adventure-style book, readers are asked to help four kids just like them decide what to do in everyday situations. Take a step further with discussion questions and a feelings chart included in the back of the book.
- Meet Evelyn who wonders if the new girl in school is here to steal all her best friends. Help her decide whether to get upset or stay calm and learn a little more about the newest student in her school.
- Help William tackle a disappointing last-minute change of plans from a day at the waterpark to a day home babysitting his little brother.
- Point Harper in the right direction when it comes to tackling her mile-long to-do list.
- Jump into Logan's most embarrassing moment ever and help him decide whether to play it cool or lose his cool!
About the Choose Your Own Attitude series: There are many things in life that we can't control. We cannot decide much of what happens to us; however, we can decide how we react. That is where the Choose Your Own Attitude books can help. Using techniques author Gail Hayes, M.A. has developed through her work as a counselor, this series explores the choices we make when dealing with everyday situations that may make it hard for us to find gratitude and the impact those choices have on how we think and feel.
