Reviews
Amazing! Julia Cook explains several difficult topics, such as communication, trust and celebrating differences, by using beautiful and colorful flowers. Counselors, educators and parents can use this book as a launching pad to discuss many of today's issues. It's a must read for all! - Dr. Sylvia A. Lopez, Director of Counseling Services, Dallas, TX Teaching behavioral skills can be difficult at times. So having a book to help in that process is a great way to teach children through example. The Judgmental Flower by Julia Cook is a great way to discuss the topic of judgmental behaviors. - Bethany, blogger @ Parenting in Progress The Judgmental Flower, is an aspirational and inspirational reminder of the importance of multicultural education. All school leaders, especially professional school counselors, must be able to address the needs and concerns of their students and families. This book serves as a brilliant vehicle to broach and embrace the topic of diversity at all levels of instruction. - Robert B. Jamison, Ed.S., Office of Student Support Services, Virginia Beach (VA) City Public Schools
