Nothing is going right for Sammy. His kindergarten teacher told him he could do a better job on his picture. His best friend didn't want to come over and play. And his mother punished him for forgetting to take out the trash. Sammy feels that his life is just awful, until Dad helps him find new ways of looking at his problems. In her third children's book after bestsellers Why Do You Love Me? and But I Waaannt It , acclaimed author and radio personality Dr. Laura Schlessinger has written another important story featuring the lovable family from her first two books. Growing Up Is Hard shows a caring parent teaching his child to cope with the challenges of growing up.
I strongly disagree with the negative reviews of this book. It is a very good book for a child who is growing up and is starting to be asked to take on more responsibility in his or her life, like school, chores etc. and may be having some difficulty in adjusting. It is a book that applies to most childern and I highly recommend it. My 6 year old really likes it too.
