Both are important in developing social skills but often teasing is left off. I was glad to see diversity skills such as prejudice, stereotypes, skin color and holidays addressed. The section on gender preferences was thoughtful and provided easily understood examples for readers. Listening and talking are often thought of as cognitive skills, but I was glad to see them in social skills since that is how children become better friends and learn to socialize. Often the lack of these skills is why some children struggle with social skills. - Debbie Vera, PhD, Associate Professor, Texas A&M University Author InformationSusan A.
