Words Are Not for Hurting

         [See Discounts and Free Shipping option at bottom of page]

Some words are kind. But some of them are not. What do hurtful words do? Here, children will learn that their words belong to them: They can think before they speak, then choose what to say and how to say it. They will explore simple, positive ways to respond when others say hurtful things to them. Most importantly, they will discover the power or saying "I'm sorry," when their words hurt someone else. You'll find the "activities and discussion starters" (pages 28-31) worth the price of the book. Color. Grades K-2. [9" x 9"...32 pages]

We're best known for two things...

__The way we pack (very carefully)
__The way we ship (very quickly)

We take packing seriously... Your books, DVDs, and CDs will be shrink-wrapped on a heavy piece of cardboard, and placed in a heavy-duty box, or in a padded mailing bag (depending on the size of your order). Therapeutic games are packed in heavy-duty boxes so they arrive in perfect condition. We also pack around the books and games with plenty of packing material to protect them from any damage. And, when the order is sealed and ready to ship, we stamp the package with our traditional red "HANDLE WITH ENTHUSIASM" stamp.

Our customers tell us... That we are pretty good at what we do. And we ought to be! We've been dispatching books to all corners of the U.S. since 1978. It will not be an accident that your books, therapeutic games, CDs, or DVDs will arrive in perfect condition. We make sure they will.

Standard Shipping... 3.95 for orders under 25.00; free shipping for any order over 25.00 (including Purchase Orders).

Expedited Shipping... 6.95 for one book; 9.95 for two or more books; 12.95 for board games; 4.80 for one or more CDs or DVDs. We normally use Priority Mail (First Class) for home addresses; UPS for school and business addresses.
