Tab Murphy - (i)Academy Award-nominated writer of Disney's Hunchback, Tarzan, Atlantis, Brother Bear "Delia Bread, What Can You Do Instead is an incredibly fun and engaging story that strengthens social-skill development. Delia encounters situations in which she uses her social skills such as choosing character, having a growth mindset, and responding appropriately to the "size of the problem."
The fun, creative characters and fantastic illustrations make the storyline even more entertaining and keep the readers wanting to see more The social skills tools are presented in a rhyme, which helps children remember them. I can imagine reading this series to my class again and again as part of our social skills program.I look forward to seeing more of the Superhero Social Skills books Jacqueline Luderer - Special education teacher, MS in Special Education "This book is a delightful entrance into a world filled with unique characters each trying to get through the day in their best way. There's a kindness (along with humor) that permeates the book-so important in today's world.
The bonus of the books are the lessons, but the real meat is in its entertainment value. The combination of the illustrations along with the descriptions create a clear visual image. I can absolutely see this as an animated series It's the kind of book, as an adult, I can enjoy reading over and over to my nieces without getting bored. They look forward to the next book in the series, and I will be delighted to read them aloud, a thousand times if they want.
David Paul Kirkpatrick - Former Production Chief of Walt Disney Studios and Former President of Walt Disney Pictures "Delia's journey to master her superhero social skills is relatable, charmingly illustrated, and whimsically narrated with heart and humor The catchy but calming rhymes she uses to manage her temper will get stuck in your head. An invaluable lesson on flexibility and a must-read for kids (and kids at heart)
