"This is a book I wouldn't mind owning...or you'd have to check it out multiple times from the library to really have the time to implement all the different "activities". But I got halfway through (doing the activities, etc) before I had to read ahead to the end. I'm interested in reading his one for adults (Learned Optimism)."
"Great book -- dealing with a very dramatic and somewhat pessimistic kindergartner, I thought it had many good ideas on how to deal with helpless thinking and similar thought patterns."
