Book Description
Meet Will Howard, an intense kid who knows what he wants: a day at the beach with his mom, dad, and sister, Lizzie. For Will, waiting to go is hard enough! What will happen when stormy weather spoils the family's plan?Saturday Surprise is the first in a series of children's books featuring an intense young boy named Will and his daily challenges--and triumphs--with emotional regulation and self-control. The series, Everyday Miracles, is grounded in the Nurtured Heart Approach®, a relationship-based methodology to help children discover their self-worth and channel their intensity in positive ways. The first of its kind--a narrative depiction of the Nurtured Heart Approach--Saturday Surprise is more than a typical children's book; it is an excellent resource for parents, teachers, and all manner of professionals who work with children and youth. (For more information on the Nurtured Heart Approach, see Transforming the Difficult Child: The Nurtured Heart Approach, by founder Howard Glasser.)
