She follows with wonderful instruments of assessment, and, best of all, strategies for helping the child to be more focused and effective. -- Ellen Kempler, National Teachers Hall of Fame I highly recommend Dr. Susan Maynard's Parent/Teacher book entitled, Pocket Book of Practical Parenting, etc. This is the kind of book that is filled with practical, fun and easy to use ideas and solutions for improving a child's and/or teenager's behavior and appreciation of life. It has findings and ideas that you feel compelled to share with parents and teachers. -- Penelope Corey Arango, Editor/Publisher,Arango Press, Miami, FL Dr. Susan Maynard is one of the best in her field.
