RJ’s back in the sixth installment of award-winning author Julia Cook’s very successful Best Me I Can Be series, Thanks for the Feedback … (I Think!). This entertaining story follows RJ as he goes about his day doing the things he enjoys, such as blowing bubbles, playing soccer, and hanging out with friends. But when a couple of friends give him compliments, he just isn’t sure how to respond! As RJ continues through the day, he hears from his teacher and parents that while there are many things he’s doing very well, there are also some things he needs to work on. His first reaction is to argue and make excuses. Throughout this must-read story, RJ learns what it means to receive positive and negative feedback, and how to respond appropriately to that feedback. Parents and teachers will love taking kids on RJ’s journey as he discovers feedback’s many forms, and learns to accept and grow from criticism and compliments at home, school and with friends.

Great for those who are: Elementary/Kinder teachers, school psychologists, special education teachers, Resource teachers, therapists, psychologists, community mental health agencies, those who work with Autistic/Asperghers and other social awkward disabilities.

Bought for work and has been excellent in helping me bridge gaps between parents and children and build rapport with clients. Assist in identifying healthy behavior choices as well as alternative behavior choices. Also provides perspective to clients that are not just corrective and allows for the client to begin to make choices.

My young clients come to my office looking forward to "RJ Stories" and "Louise Stories" Julia Cook write wonderful social skills building books that are essential for any Play Therapist's office... she constantly makes me think 'why didn't I write this?!' Julia writes the lessons into fun stories with adorable characters - my young clients comprehend these messages easily and are encouraged to practice their skills thanks to RJ and Louise! RJ learns in this book what we ALL need to, how to take in constructive criticism when it's true...and to let the rest go!Simple! Love it! thanks again Julia!

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor. This is a great book as is the whole RJ series. It gets kids to recognize that feedback can help them be more successful.

I am socially awkward and don't want my kids to be. I don't think anyone ever taught me to just say thank you when given a compliment, and not all kids can pick up on these things without direct teaching. We have one of the other RJ books by Julia and like it as well (worst day ever). My 6-year-old likes these (he is intelligent with a large vocabulary), but they're a little too wordy for my 4-year-old so I have to restate the main ideas for him. There isn't really enough of a story, but that isn't the reason we read them anyway.

This is a great book. I am an elementary school counselor and I have used this book, not only for small groups in my office but also for classroom guidance lessons. It is a great way to introduce the topic to kids and get discussions going. I used this book for 3-5th.

Child friendly and simple to understand for grade school children. Opens needed conversation for feedback and children can relate to the situation.

Another Julia Cook win. It offers not only how to accept feedback but how to act properly when it is more unbridled criticism than constructive. Her books are the best for teaching social skills without just hammering them into my kindergartener's head. He asks to reread these books AND seems to really absorb the lessons. Thank you!
