(Without Hitting Your Sister)

The book is by Dr. Eileen Kennedy-Moore, who has provided parent education and faculty resources for Princeton Montessori School through the years and is a wealth of knowledge for parents and teachers alike.

It is a story of a young boy who sees his parents preoccupied with his sister, the baby, and daily chores, he wonders, “What About Me?” This charming and compassionate picture book offers children positive choices for coping with feelings of jealousy or being left out. It deftly handles the issue of sibling rivalry by showing how every child can learn kind, helpful, and creative ways to get loving attention.

What’s My Child Thinking?

Using more than 100 everyday scenarios, the book leads you through each one step by step, explaining not only your child’s behavior and the psychology behind it but also your own feelings as a parent. It then gives instant recommendations for what you could say and do in response to best resolve the situation.

Covering all your child’s developmental milestones from ages 2 to 7 years, What’s My Child Thinking?covers important issues, such as temper tantrums, friendships (real and imaginary), sibling rivalry, aggressive behavior, and peer pressure. There’s also a bank of practical “survival guides” for critical times, such as traveling in the car, eating out, and going online safely.
