Abstract

Every night, Bailey dreams about magical dresses: dresses made of crystals and rainbows, dresses made of flowers, dresses made of windows... Unfortunately, when Bailey's awake, no one wants to hear about these beautiful dreams. Quite the contrary: "You're a BOY!"; Mother and Father tell Bailey. "You shouldn't be thinking about dresses at all." Then Bailey meets Laurel, an older girl who is touched and inspired by Bailey's imagination and courage. In friendship, the two of them begin making dresses together. And Bailey becomes the girl she always dreamed she'd be!

Abstract

Bipley is a warm cuddly creature, but someone has broken his heart. He feels so hurt that he decides it is just too painful to ever love again. When he meets some big tough Honks in the wood, they teach him how to harden his heart so that he doesn't have to feel hurt any more. Luckily Bipley meets some creatures that teach him how he can protect himself without hardening his heart. The guidebook will help childern who: bully or take revenge on others for the pain they have felt themselves

have become very defensive because something too painful has happened to them; have hardened their hearts because they have: been too hurt in love, met with too much harshness, witnessed parental violence, been repeatedly hit, been shamed or humiliated, or had too many experiences of not being responded to; think they have lost their parent's love to someone else and have hardened their heart.
