Tenacity in Children
Nurturing the Seven Instincts for Lifetime Success Tenacity in Children examines how multiple generations of parents and caregivers raised children to become successful adults. Until relatively recent times in human history, there were no schools or organized institutions, nor were there parenting books. Rather, caregivers depended on the seven important instincts that evolved across tens of thousands of years in the human species. This volume highlights the ways in which these instincts are more important than ever in preparing children for tomorrow's successes. Key areas of coverage include individual chapters devoted to examining each of the seven instincts - intuitive optimism, intrinsic motivation, compassionate empathy, simultaneous intelligence, genuine altruism, virtuous responsibility, and measured fairness - as well as practical strategies to guide children in acquiring and fine-tuning these essential human instincts.

The Mouse Who Carried A House On His Back
When an ordinary spot on a grassy hill calls out to him, Vincent puts down the house he carries on his back and knows he's where he needs to be. As hungry and tired travelers pass by, Vincent welcomes them into his home, making room for everyone. And even when it seems that the house is as full as it possibly can be, there is no woodland animal so big or so scary-not a ravenous cat, nor a fox, nor a whole herd of deer-that Vincent would turn it away from his warm, magical home on the hill. Jonathan Stutzman's charming voice is enhanced by the elegant, inventive die-cut art of three-time Governor General's Award winner Isabelle Arsenault in this classic tale of a generous mouse with a special house and an ever-expanding heart.
