    About this ebook

    Benny the lion is crying because he thinks he has done something wrong. His mommy and daddy are fighting and they don't play with him as much anymore.

    This story helps children to understand that they are not to blame when their parents are in conflict and offers parents who have fallen into this trap a chance to rectify the problem.

    Children learn through stories and easily associate with the characters in stories. This natural tendency provides a parent a wonderful opportunity to guide his or her child’s behaviour and feelings and teach them understandings with which to improve their EQ.

    In the ebook, notes are provided which teach parents, educators and play therapists the valuable skills.

    Alan Johnstone

    Hi, I am Alan Johnstone. In the last 12 years I have spent most of my waking time helping people overcome emotional difficulties developed in their childhood. I have decided to tackle some of the causes of these emotional difficulties by writing educational books. Books also allow me to move past helping one person at a time. A book can help countless people. It is for this reason that I chose to become an author. Parenting is a massive undertaking and has many aspects to it. In my books I do my best to provide parents with the advanced communication skills they may need to ensure that they leave a beneficial and lasting legacy in the life of their child.

      Theory: Helping children cope with parental conflict

      Benny the lion learns it's not his fault.

      Preface

      Ierma Burger

      I met Alan about two years before this book was conceptualized. Alan helped me through my own life issues.

      I always had a passion for children and through our work together it became clear that I wanted to help children that also had issues to work through. To help me to fulfill my inner drive to help children, Alan suggested that I write children stories with him as mentor. When children learn positive perceptions and obtain the skills to handle issues, at a young age, they have it much easier handling issues later in life.
