A-z collection of behaviour tales, an - Susan Perrow

Story medicine is a creative strategy for effecting positive change in childrens' out-of-balance behaviour.

Each story in this collection begins with an undesirable situation and, through the use of metaphor and an imaginative story journey, leads to a more satisfactory resolution.

In this way, the stories also have the potential for nurturing positive values.

The stories cover many kinds of universal behaviour.

Following the alphabet from A to Z, the behaviour is identified in the story title e.

anxious, bossy, cranky .

greedy .

jealous .

lazy .

swearing .

uncooperative .

and more.

The stories can be told directly, or adapted.

They can be turned into home-made picture books and puppet shows, or used as springboards for the creation of new tales for particular behaviour challenges and situations.

This is a collection of 42 family friendly behaviour tales to tell to children aged 3-9 years.

These behaviour tales offer a fun, creative pathway of `story medicine' in parenting, teaching and counselling.
