“I had it first!” “That’s not fair!” All parents and Educators know one thing – when you get more than one child in a room, there’s bound to be at least a couple of them arguing over something. Award-winning author Julia Cook tells the funny and relatable story of how her three dogs view their “siblings.” Each pooch would like to be the only dog in the family, have all the attention, and not have to share their toys or be bossed around by a stronger dog. Children in grades K-6 will learn about conflict resolution, empathy, fairness, and problem solving in addition to understanding that “fair doesn’t ever mean equal”. Kids can easily relate to the three dogs and learn to become more tolerant of and patient with their own siblings. I Want to Be the Only Dog is part of the Building Relationships series which supports social competence. This is one more resource from Julia Cook for helping kids get the social skills they need to get along with others. Tips for parents and Educators further address the issue of rivalry with siblings or peers.

What Do I Say About That?

Coping with an Incarcerated Parent

By: Julia Cook,Anita DuFalla

Why can't he see what he did to me - to our family? This book takes a unique look at the internal struggles with which a child of an incarcerated parent is faced. My dad says that drugs and alcohol made him choose to do the wrong things. But he could have said no to the drugs and the booze, then my life wouldn't be what it seems. Why didn't he love us enough to say no? Aren't we worth it to him? He had a choice...us or drugs. He chose to let the drugs win. What Do I Say About That? creatively explores and validates the roller coaster journey of emotions that children of incarcerated parents endure. It also gives insight to the process of healing and coping.
