This book is Mike's leadership program in a nut-shell. It's a great way for kids (and parents) to remind themselves about the essence of the using positive lenses in their lives--because let's face it, it's easy to get sucked into negativity! Really great read for adults and kids alike.

Mike Sissel has created the "Who Moved My Cheese" of Social/Emotional learning pedagogy. This little gem uses a conversation between a 13 year old girl and her father to share current psychological and neuroscience research in an easily applicable set if 6 tools. A must read for anyone that deals with children!
