"The Resilience Workbook for Kids is a practical, kid-friendly book
full of accessible and evidence-based activities for self-directed
learning. It gives young people clear directions on why each skill
is an important resilience skill, and how they can learn, do, and
strengthen it. This workbook superbly achieves rigor in terms of
the psychological constructs and research on which the activities
are based, and a format that will actively engage young people.
Resilience is more important than ever, and I highly recommend this
book to parents, teachers, and to the young people in our
lives."

"It's hard to be a kid today. Kids see more, know more, and do more
today than ever before but some of what they see are bad examples,
some of what they know is challenging to everyone, and some of what
they do are what those bad examples encourage. This book is a
practice field for good, showing children in a step-by-step way how
to develop the flexible strength needed to prosper. If you love
children, you will love the support for healthy growth this book
provides. Highly recommended."
