Children Think Suicide Too!
Children Think Suicide Too! is about young children trying to endure the burdens of abnormal negative experiences that have happened to them. Whether they realize how much of an impact these experiences have had, small or large offenses are hard for them to understand and endure while growing up. It addresses emotions that children feel, such as fear, rejection, not feeling loved, loneliness, stress and disappointment. Having the emotion is one thing but learning to cope with it is another. Children experience adult emotions but lack the capacity to express or deescalate the trauma on their own. They become insecure and uneasy due to this inability to process their thoughts and feelings. After all how does a child express fear, emotions of feeling unloved, bullying, and such things? This book helps you understand what is needed to guide them to express in their own way yet not destructive. It also will show you the authors own experience and through it all, they can still be ok. The hurt doesn't have to last forever. She will share her fortune with having her aunt, her granddad, and her godfather to show her God's love: a love that transcended deeper than she had at home. You will read how prayer helped change the course of her life. God gave our children life and for him shall they live.
Getting it Right @ 60
"Getting it Right@60" - A Common Man's Perspective There are a lot of books available on life after retirement but I wanted to write one from the perspective of a common man. This is a book for every Common Man who is already retired or retiring. Common Man is conceived as one from the middle class, a person who has spent all this time in doing his job diligently and honestly but in this process could not pursue his hobbies. He could as well not nurture well his family and personal relationships, despite a strong inclination and all resources at his disposal. While definition of Hobby is so wide, encompassing anything and everything, it is at the same time, difficult to identify one's hobby at-least amongst middle class Indians, for giving it its due after he is retiring. At this stage of life, most of them are unaware about the areas which give them passion and enchantment. This book will help readers from middle class society, address this dilemma. An attempt has also been made to address issues of various fears in the mind of retiring persons as regards their health, finances, uncaring children, unsettled children, sexlessness, loneliness etc. Once retired, with all the time in the world, and limited responsibilities, sometimes, we find ourselves lost in search of purpose. This book will address this aspect of dilemma also. It is endeavoured that each page of this book connects well with senior citizens and interests them. I would not claim that my readers will find some startling revelations about happy retired life from this short book, but I am confident that once a reader reads this, he will be better equipped to lead a more fulfilling retired life. I hope my honest attempt will provide readers with inspiration and zeal to re-prioritise their journey of life, and take retirement as a chosen milestone to start attending to one's non lucrative but highly satisfying pursuits.

The Death of Cupcake
The Death of Cupcake: A Child's Experience with Loss exposes the intersection of grief and consciousness from a child's perspective. It opens a conscious dialogue about life and loss, reminding parents and children of their infinite nature. It allows children to view death as a liberation, easing the fears and sorrow surrounding a personal loss. Through the lens of consciousness lies the realization that many children are not given the space to make closure when a loved one transitions because physical death is not easily discussed. Furthermore, many children are excluded from funeral or burial proceedings. Thereby, the unresolved feelings and emotions surrounding the death of a close family member, friend, or beloved pet are often carried over into adulthood. The Death of Cupcake elevates our collective perspective surrounding loss to overcome our societal fears of finality.

I Don’t Want to Eat That
Throughout her twenty years of clinical practice, Dr. Kara Paat would often hear parents admit that they struggled to get their picky eaters to choose healthier foods. The dinner table discussion would turn into an argument full of anger and frustration, having two expected outcomes; tears from the children or parents throwing in the towel, saving the battle for another day. This pervasive parental challenge inspired Dr. Paat to write this book-helping parents educate their children and understand the importance of healthy food choices. This book illustrates that food choices have an immense impact on how we think, feel, function, and behave for better or worse. Dr. Paat has worked with many picky eaters in her holistic practice. Many also struggle in some way at school, whether it be a difficulty with reading, writing, focus, behavior, repetitive behaviors, emotionality, anger outbursts, or coordination. To respond to this situation, Dr. Paat became certified in the diagnosis and treatment of Childhood Developmental Disorders through the American Board of Functional Neurology and obtained her licentiate with the Institute for Neuro-Physiological Psychology. Regardless of Dr. Paat's functional evaluation, diagnosis, and protocol, dietary changes were foundational more often than not. The majority of the children lacked in nutrient-dense foods. Instead, the children were often stuck in a dietary pattern that included plenty of processed foods, artificial colors, preservatives, and added sugar. They were consistently deficient in whole foods such as vegetables, fruits, healthy fats, and unprocessed meat. Education, not dictation, has been the most effective way for Dr. Paat to facilitate an intrinsically self-motivated change in each child's dietary habits, allowing her to witness the fantastic results that accompany the transition to a healthier diet.Her unique approach to educating and empowering children has helped them make small dietary improvements over time, resulting in a positive impact on behavior, learning, focus, emotions, and physical abilities. As a mother, Dr. Paat can relate. She has written this book to help alleviate the struggle that most parents have at home. She hopes that with the routine reading of I Don't Want to Eat That, children will learn from Jack's choices and will want to eat healthier foods, realizing the importance of making healthier food choices for themselves, much like her own daughter Roxie. This book is dedicated to the mission of helping each child to be the best version of themselves.

Let’s Share! A Hope Story
Mistrust... Suspicion... Hate... If these feelings fill your mind and body with stress and anxiety for you, imagine experiencing them as a child! Kids perceive so much more, so much earlier than we realize. So why not start talking with them as early as possible about adversity and diversity? About feeling below but rising above? About being different, being awesome? Let's Share a Hope Story is a diverse and inclusive picture book designed to bring messages of understanding and promise to readers of many ages and stages. It doesn't matter if we're by ourselves or surrounded by others, everyone feels alone sometimes. There are lots of reasons we face these feelings, and there may be just as many ways to overcome them. While we consider and process isolating circumstances and emotions, it's important that we remember that there are always people out in the world who care about us - and if we don't feel like we know them already, we have got to believe that we will find them someday! Part of the inclusive Let's Share social and emotional wellness series, A Hope Story aims to continue to engage and empower readers. Broaching sensitive topics alongside endearing characters and heartfelt verse, it serves as a gentle conversation starter and remarkable gift to help withstand: Mistrust... with confidence.Suspicion... with knowledge.Hate... with love. Whether enjoyed alone, with a partner, or in a group read-aloud (online, in school, at home, or anywhere!), Let's Share a Hope Story offers opportunity after opportunity for connection, recognition, and appreciation. Through empathy, compassion, and kindness, A Hope Story helps us feel seen, lifted, and united by reminding everyone that someone will always be there.
