Synopsis by Jason Buchanan

Developmental behavior pediatrician Dr. Mel Levine highlights the problems that can arise when youngsters experience difficulty with negative feelings both at school and at home in this subset of a twenty-two volume series designed to help parents better understand the sometimes-troubling behavior of children and adolescents. With illuminating videos on "Memory," "Language," "Attention," "Feelings and Motivations," and "Social Cognition," Dr. Levine offers a discussion with students, teachers, parents, and other experts aimed at helping youngsters deal with feelings of helplessness and low self esteem. Additional guidebooks are also included.
