Book of the Month

Jane Nelson has been writing books on positive discipline for over 25 years and has sold over a million copies. Why are her books so popular? Undoubtedly because so many new parents realize they are not especially well-trained for this most important job of raising their children!

When they begin to wonder how to respond to tantrums, take on potty training or handle sibling fights, parents often turn to this or another of Nelson's books, such as Positive Discipline A-Z or Positive Discipline for Preschoolers. If you're feeling just a bit frazzled over your child's behavior, stop in and try one yourself!
