This helpful gem of a book guides parents and other caregivers to
tune in to the internal worlds of young children to allow their
minds to be seen and respected. With practical suggestions and
useful illustrations, the authors clearly convey these important
steps to guiding our children's development. Cultivating such
mindsight for our youth is essential to creating a kinder and more
resilient next generation.

Being Human and Executive Director, Mindsight Institute*
Yes, the How to Talk tools work for young children! It is never too
soon to reflect children's emotions, acknowledge their wishes, and
see things from their perspective. Faber and King are like wise,
calm friends that arrive just in time to help you through the
toughest moments, with no judging or shaming. In fact, they have
just as much empathy for parents as they have for children. They
understand that punishment and control are dead ends, and they
offer a clear path towards cooperation and connection.
