De Golia (ISBN 0-88207-026-6)Condition: VERY GOOD (some spots on cover)Synopsis: As we study the four Gospels of the New Testament the methods of the Lord Jesus, the Master-Teacher, we find that He drove home heavenly truths most frequently through the use of parables (Mark 4:33, 34). And what are parables? Their classic definition is "earthly stories with heavenly meanings"--in other words, Jesus explained unknown things of heaven by comparing them to well-known things on earth. If we would teach as the Master-Teacher taught, we too shall use object lessons, using familiar, easy-to-understand things of earth to make clear unfamiliar, hard-to-understand things of heaven. These lessons are easy to prepare and are illustrated with objects that are readily obtainable. Because in some groups new children come and go, the plan of salvation is included in most lessons.

The Primal Teen: What the New Discoveries About the Teenage Brain Tell Us About Our Kids, by Barbara Strauch (ISBN: 0-385-72160-9)Condition: LIKE NEWSynopsis: For anyone who has ever puzzled over the mysterious and often infuriating behavior of a teenager comes a groundbreaking look at the teenage brain written by the medical science and health editor for The New York Times. While many members of the scientific community have long held that the growing pains of adolescence are primarily psychological, Barbara Strauch highlights the physical nature of the transformation, offering parents the physical nature of the transformation, offering parents and educators a new perspective on erratic teenage behavior. Using plain language, Strauch draws upon the latest scientific discoveries to make the case that the changes the brain goes through during adolescence are as dramatic and crucial as those that take place in the first two years of life, and that teenagers are not entirely responsible for their sullen, rebellious, and moody ways. Featuring interviews with scientists, teenagers, parents, and teachers, The Primal Teen explores common challenges--why teens go from articulate and mature one day to morose and unreachable the next, why they engage in risky behavior--and offers practical strategies to help manage these formative and often difficult years.

The Widening World of Childhood: Paths Toward Mastery, by Lois Barclay Murphy and collaborators (copyright 1962, 3rd Printing)Condition: GOOD (Previous library copy which shows its almost 60 years of age, but apart from library cataloging markings, the book is in great condition)Synopsis: This book is one of a group of publications based upon studies of normal children observed in infancy and periodically to adolescence. The idea for this study grew out of problems seen in earlier studies of personality development. However, our approach has been enriched by the suggestions and criticisms of many friends and supporters. We have though of the "Copin Project" as an intensive pilot study whose purpose was to scrutinize children's ways of dealing with new demands and difficulties which they face in everyday life, and to offer tentative formulations and hypotheses regarding the processes involved in the solution of some typical problems. We hope that questions to which children have called our attention will stimulate others to work toward more understanding of children's ways of meeting challenges as they move into new experiences in their widening world. **All of our products come from a pet-free, smoke-free, illness-free environment.
