The book was okay. If anything I found it inspirational and motivating. It describes great leaders and it is a good book to gain insight on how to become a good one. It pushes you and gives you some tips on how to become disciplined but it dragged in a many areas and there weren‘t explicit strategies.

Again, this is in stark contrast to the childhood inflicted upon millions of children by religions and their negative view of human beings, especially children.

November‘s pick was Discipline is Destiny. I wasn‘t sure about it at first, but ultimately a lot of what he wrote resonated with me, so much that as soon as I finished I re-listened to it. But, November was a good month—strong honorable mentions to Stay True by Hua Hsu and Reagan by Bob Spitz.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫 Started listening to this and found myself sort of rolling my eyes and thinking, “okaaaaay, Cal Newport,” but as it went on I found a lot of the content actually did really land for me, to the point that once I finished, I immediately listened a second time. The premise is that, rather than self denial, self-discipline is actually the way to achieve contentment and satisfaction. When I let myself let that in I realized he has a point.

fredthemoose I also liked that several of the examples of discipline were of women. Very much appreciated. 4mo
5feet.of.fury I‘ve read some others of his & enjoyed them, I‘ll have to check this one out! 4mo

What a treasure. Lots of fantastic messages, tips and ideas. Will definitely reread later on.

Begin with the end in mind. Why do we discipline our children? Is our goal to punish or to teach them the skills they need to be safe, kind, and successful humans?

No, David! | David Shannon

“Yes, David... I love you!“
This is important because sometimes you may need to remind children that even though you tell them “no“, you still do love them.

I would love to read this book to a group of students! Some of the pictures leave room for interpretation of what David is doing wrong. For example, on the page of David eating, some children may think he is getting told “no“ because he has too much food in his mouth, while others may argue it's because he's chewing with his mouth open. This book can lead to a great discussion of why we have rules and why students shouldn't break them.

No, David! | David Shannon
Pickpick

“No, David“ by David Shannon was published in 1998. A 1999 Caldecott Honor Book. This book uses the illustrations to tell most of the story. There is a picture of David doing something he shouldn't be doing and the only words on the page are saying “No, David“. It is an interesting way to tell a story. The pictures depict specific emotions David may feel. These include sad, rebellious, worried, and more.

“Yes, David“ At then end it shows that David did the right thing.
