But Aren't I Lucky That

Not only is it inevitable that children will experience stress, it is an essential part of their self-development. They learn from these struggles and, as a result, they develop a set of tools. These are the ready-to-turn-to ways that they cope with and respond to difficulties. Wouldn't it be great if their ways of coping were based on how to think with realistic optimism, and to reframe events in their lives to find the benefits, and not focus solely on the negative. This book is a great step to help parents and children start on that path. "But Aren't I Lucky That…" is a fantastically illustrated children's book that helps kids learn to find and celebrate the positive as they work through everyday challenges. By using evidence-based concepts from Positive Psychology, Dr. Beech weaves an enjoyable story that guides readers through easy to apply tools that foster happiness, optimistic thinking and resiliency.
