By the authors of the New York Times bestseller Whale Done!
Bring out the best in your kids! "How is it they can get a
killer whale to urinate on cue, and we can't get our son to
pee into the toilet?" Amy Sheldrake, young mother and killer
whale trainer-in-training, marvels at the complex behaviors
her superiors at SeaWorld are able to coax out of these
enormous beasts, while she and her husband struggle to make
their beloved--and much smaller--son Josh obey the simplest
rules. Using the story approach popularized by Ken Blanchard
in his many bestsellers, this unique parenting book draws on
the experiences of two of the coauthors--as both pioneering
marine mammal trainers and as parents--to show how the same
principles that induce killer whales to leap into the air
can persuade young children to go quietly to bed. Like Amy
and her husband Matt, once you get the hang of the three
Whale Done principles, you'll see a dramatic difference in
overcoming challenges like following bedtime routines,
dealing with tantrums, introducing new foods, sharing,
avoiding overuse of the word no, learning to care for a pet,
and instituting time-outs.
