Book Reviewers say...
"Great Kid Stuff. It's Up To You... What Do You Do? is a fun book that teaches youngsters about values by placing them in interesting situations. A lot of parents these days are worried about the messages being sent children as they watch the news on television about behavior which is deemed wrong by most standards, but seems to go unpunished. This book is the answer as it offes up challenging situations that emphasize the importance of personal integrity, compassion, loyalty, self-disciplikne and other qualitites we all want children to acquire."

"I enjoyed reading each parable. In today's world, our young people need every possible opportunity to talk through 'what if' scenarios. Talking through events that could happen before they actually do, helps kids make wiser decisions. Your book gives parents and teachers the basis to increase communication about ethical behavior."
