Hardback. Condition: Very Good. A collection of poems and reflections written over many years. From the author: "My poems are pieces of who I am. Each one reveals why and what I was thinking about on a particular day. With premeditation and forethought, I've thrown open wide the doors to my inner sanctum. I hope what shines through is the power of love. Love penetrates and wins with people who genuinely and honestly have a desire to communicate. I dream that something between these covers will help you see your own self-worth, help you express your own feelings, or help you start your own path of creativity. If the love shared between these covers helps you strengthen a relationship, it would bring me much joy. My hope is that at least one of my poems will inspire each reader to do something good for their friends or relatives. To communicate more and to express love more. We all can take small beginnings as we make this journey of life-we can make it better by effectively and continually learning to speak to each other. As we learn to speak, we will learn the dying art of listening to those around us.".…

Paperback. Condition: Fair. The growth phase between five and eight years of age, is a time when parental training and encouragement are major players in a child's developing world.

As that interaction begins, he begins to process experiences and sensations from his deepening relationships that direct the way he interprets life. As his world unfolds, new and broader expectations are realized. Now he is confronted with role functions, norms, and expected standards of conduct which sometimes conflict with each other as well as with his own self-centered perceptions.…
