It Hurts When I Poop!
Author: Howard J. Bennett
Publisher: American Psychological Association
ISBN: 1433835312
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 18
Book Description
iParenting Media Award Winner Ryan is scared to use the potty. He is afraid to have a poop, because he's afraid it's going to hurt. He does NOT want to go. This story, along with Ryan's "poop program," will help young children gain the confidence they need to overcome this common problem and establish healthy habits. Includes a Note to Parents by the author, From the Note to Parents: The book includes a “poop program” that I use with children between the ages of 3 and 6. While the program is ostensibly for the main character, my hope is that your child will want to follow these steps as well. How you approach the program will vary somewhat depending on your child’s age. Most 3- to 4-year-olds do not need to do the program in a formal way. Instead, you can incorporate parts of the program into your daily routine—make the needed dietary changes, reward successful pooping with stickers, and consider reviewing how poops come out of the body. Most 5- to 6-year-olds are interested in doing the full program, though it is still important to be flexible. For example, if a 5-year-old does not want to do Potty Practice, I would adjust things accordingly.

The Days of Afrekete

ISBN: 0374721904
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 159
Book Description
“I didn't feel like I was reading this novel—I felt like I was living it.” —Ann Patchett, author of The Dutch House From award-winning author Asali Solomon, The Days of Afrekete is a tender, surprising novel of two women at midlife who rediscover themselves—and perhaps each other, inspired by Mrs. Dalloway, Sula, and Audre Lorde's Zami Liselle Belmont is having a dinner party. It seems a strange occasion—her husband, Winn, has lost his bid for the state legislature—but what better way to thank key supporters than a feast? Liselle was never sure about her husband becoming a politician, never sure about the limelight, never sure about the life of fundraising and stump speeches. Then an FBI agent calls to warn her that Winn might be facing corruption charges. An avalanche of questions tumbles around her: Is it possible he’s guilty? Who are they to each other; who have they become? How much of herself has she lost—and was it worth it? And just this minute, how will she make it through this dinner party? Across town, Selena Octave is making her way through the same day, the same way she always does—one foot in front of the other, keeping quiet and focused, trying not to see the terrors all around her. Homelessness, starving children, the very living horrors of history that made America possible: these and other thoughts have made it difficult for her to live an easy life. The only time she was ever really happy was with Liselle, back in college. But they’ve lost touch, so much so that when they ran into each other at a drugstore just after Obama was elected president, they barely spoke. But as the day wears on, memories of Liselle begin to shift Selena’s path. Inspired by Mrs. Dalloway and Sula, as well as Audre Lorde’s Zami, Asali Solomon’s The Days of Afrekete is a deft, expertly layered, naturally funny, and deeply human examination of two women coming back to themselves at midlife. It is a watchful celebration of our choices and where they take us, the people who change us, and how we can reimagine ourselves even when our lives seem set.

Book Description
Enigmatic, engaging, strange, these stories arrive like alien transmissions, half-foreign, half-familiar, completely compelling and singular and authentic in tone and voice and wonderful weirdness. The Hypochondriac Society stands wild and real, and Michael Prihoda brings us such fresh news of the world, all of it shot through with his slant rhymes of intelligence and heart. --William Lychack, author of Cargill Falls and The Architect of Flowers Reading The Hypochondriac Society by Michael Prihoda is a delirious summersault into the lives of ordinary people made strange by their yearning for connection and the end of their boredom. Prihoda is an accomplished storyteller, whose inviting voice and sense of brevity will get you to sit down, shut up, and share a few laughs along the way. Prihoda lures you in with laughs, and makes you stay for the warm fire feeling of resonance as you get to know these characters, all along wondering when someone like you will show up, living the multitude of lives you've been missing out on until you sink deeper into these short but stirring tales. -- Tommy Dean, author of Special Like the People on TV The Hypochondriac Society is punchy, tender, ironic, and winningly odd. Infused with Prihoda's laconic wit, these comic gems and twenty-first century parables surprise as often as they charm. Telegrams from the frontier of contemporary fiction. Not to be missed. -- John Bolin, author of Three Pioneers
