A lifeline for teachers and parents during those middle childhood years of ages 7-12. You will find yourself nodding as you begin to see the mirror images that only a parent or teacher of a child in this age of awakening can see. This is a must-have for any teacher or school leader in middle childhood.' <br /> - Steiner Books</p> <p>'Anyone who has heard of Lou Harvey-Zahra's wonderful talks, or read any of her previous books, will be pleased to see her font of wisdom can be applied to the older children too. It is so helpful to read her insightful advice, practical and heart-warming ideas and creative discipline tips for the over 7's, and delving into the developmental changes taking place at 7, 9 and 12 years of age. A practical, easy to read and down to earth guide.'<br /> - Kindling</p> <p>'I love Lou Harvey-Zahra's advice, which is fun but practical, and rooted in love.' <br /> - Saffia Farr, Editor, JUNO Magazine</p> <p>'If you have children between 7-12 years or coming close to this age, you simply must read this book!
