Bloomington, IL Author Publishes Educational Book

April 23, 2020 (PRLEAP.COM) Entertainment News
This, This, This, and That, a new book by Linda M. Davis, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.

This, This, This, and That moves eighth graders to an awareness of what's going on in the lives of others in the community who aren't necessarily in their peer group. Although other-oriented, it simultaneously builds individual self-esteem for verbalizing needs without feeling intimidated in preparation for interacting with people of all ages.

The short stories encourage teacher prep for guidance and follow-up discussions while allowing youth to examine possible situations and make positive alternative solutions.

Readers can use the enclosed student community volunteer stories to address situations that involve bullying, crisis, dignity, and human welfare.
