"""As in Jenifer's previous outstanding 4 books, she conveys and teaches in a beautiful and necessary way of the values many children no longer get instilled in their lives. I feel this book is absolutely a must read and must applied to all youth, the lessons are profound and put in a beautiful kind and simplistic way. Buy this book - in fact - get all Jenifer's books, teach your children these lessons and your life at home will grow with harmony and goodness and your child will become an outstanding respectful citizen. That is of course what you truly desire, isn't it?"" -Joey O, Best-Selling Author ""Jenifer Tull-Gauger has done it again - created another book delving into aspects of child growth and identity. I especially love the subtleness of the lesson, in that it doesn't feel like a lesson. It feels like a story of a kid trying to avoid normal kid hurdles while learning karate. And yet, like life, it is a whole lot more."" -Bonniejean Alford, MA - Sociology and Communication, The Identity Guru ""Author-illustrator Jenifer Tull-Gauger's newest Dojo Kun children's book 'Think Then Do' is another in the excellent guides for children's self-awareness series. The special 5 finger teaching activity is exceptionally appropriate. Skillfully written and illustrated, it includes vocabulary and phonetic pronunciation for English enhancement."" -Cecilia E. Fleming, MSN, RN, Elementary, High School and Adult Educator"
