Overview

Self-Help Skills is a book written for kids with the help of kids. When asked why young people have drug and substance abuse issues, being bullied and bullying others, as well as depression and suicide, my sixth grade students answered with courage and honesty. They said and wrote things that helped us to understand how severe their needs are. Hundreds of comments, both written and spoken, caught my attention. My next questions were: What do you need? How can I help? What can we do together to make it better for ourselves and others? Again their answers led us to asking more and more questions; to writing and reading more information that eventually resulted in this book. This book is for kids, written with the help of kids. The goal is to empower all readers. Volume I contains lessons to help kids be physically and emotionally safe. Volume II is about self-awareness skills. Volume III is for relationships and being in service to others.

Author Information

Michele grew up on the streets of Honolulu, Hawaii. Her childhood did not lend itself to survival, let alone academic or professional longevity. She credits good teachers and even better friends, for her personal success. She finished high school, graduated from college and went on to graduate studies in secondary education and special education for gifted and talented kids. Today she has twenty plus e-books available on the internet, ranging in subject from Forgiveness to Self-help Skills for Kids. No one is more surprised than she is. Her books come from knowing how to listen, asking great questions, and writing about topics that people are not comfortable to ask about. She writes about important ideas in simple easy to read formats. Her first four books, Self Help Skills for Kids, were written with kids for kids. She humbly asked them for advice on how to be a better parent and teacher. They courageously gave her their heartfelt answers that forever changed her life. Michele's books are creative responses to the challenges everyone faces. She writes with courage and honesty, because it is what her sixth grade students taught her to do.
