Kevin Leman
Revell, 1998
Read this book!
If you like to analyze people, things; if you think too much; if your family just totally baffles you sometimes, or makes you want to rip their heads off, then this book is for you. It explains EVERYTHING. Almost everything. Really. Our birth order defines us. Scary. Revealing. Illuminating. Just read it!

Have a New Kid by Friday: How to Change Your Child's Attitude, Behavior & Character in 5 Days 21 reviews
Dr. Kevin Leman
Revell, 2008
Wish I'd had this book 20 years ago!
As a mother of four adult children and a (young) grandmother of four, I knew I wanted this book! By the time my strong-willed toddlers had become teens I had painted myself into a corner with popular "democratic" parenting techniques that eroded my confidence and credibility. Though I had the good sense to balance my limited parenting skills with boatloads of prayer, this doctor's prescription ...

What a Difference a Daddy Makes: The Indelible Imprint a Dad Leaves on His Daughter's Life26 reviews
Kevin Leman
Thomas Nelson, 2001
Very good for the first time Dad and the experienced one too
This book was recommended to me by my brother-in-law who has 4 daughters. I just have one. Most of the chapters were relevant to my situation although it really focuses on the teen and young adult situations the author had experienced. It did open my eyes to other areas of my daughter's life I must pay attention to. The last chapter(Epilogue) was hard to read. I really got emotional about ...

The Birth Order Connection: Finding and Keeping the Love of Your Life 10 reviews
Kevin Leman, Kevin, Dr. Leman
Revell, 2001
Not all theories have graphs
This book is life-changing. Maybe Dr. Leman's theories aren't backed by numerical data, but let's not forget--not all data can be gauged in graphs or contained in charts. In fact, Leman's opinions are backed by something more solid than statistics: his wealth of experience with the human condition. He has counseled virtually thousands of couples and thus lays claim to a vast understanding of ...

Middle child LOVES
I bought this book and the other two for the youngest and oldest children. The other two like it well enough, but for the middle child...so special! She loves reading it night after night and even sleeps with it. I would highly recommend this for the middle child.

Making Children Mind Without Losing Yours34 reviews

REVELL, 2000
Wonderful for kids, spouses and coworkers
My mother-in-law gave me this book when I got married. I was not sure if it was for my husband or because she anticipated children :)
I found the concepts in this book worked equally well for the kids, my spouse and my co-workers. I am always using the term "reality disipline".

NavPress Publishing Group, 1998
I Wish I had Known
This is a great book. I am a 48 year old grandmother of two little boys, who I babysit while my daughter works. I got this book to help me learn to deal with the older grandson. Reality discipline really works. I wish I had known about reality discipline when I was raising my own children. Reality discipline helps children see that there are consequences to their actions. It also removes ...

The Birth Order Book: Why You Are the Way You Are32 reviews
Kevin Leman
Fleming H Revell Co, 1985
Birth Order applied to careers
I took this book to work with me and shared it with a group of managers. We found that the book was surprisingly accurate in the the way that we each demonstrated our management styles. The first born's were very organized and process driven, while the middle-born manager avoided confrontation and tended to be suspicious. We did have one manager who didn't fit the birth order characteristics. He ...

My Only Child, There's No One Like You (Birth Order Books)1 review
Dr. Kevin Leman, KevinII Leman
Revell, 2005
Cute and unique book for only children and parents
There are so few books that focus on only children FOR only children. This is a keeper. It's a very thoughtful story about an only bear cub and his parents and how it's okay to be an only child and that doesn't make the child weird. The only reason I gave it 4 stars was because the author, while a guru on birth order, may have put too much emphasis on NOT having a sibling, versus the situation ...

See the World from the Feelings of your Child
Dr. Leman helped me see the possible feelings and thoughts that my children may be having in certain situations. He not only writes from the perspective of the parents, but also from the children. He provides examples of how parents typically respond and then provides alternatives that are more healthy and relationship-building. No matter what your situation, children need love, an ...

Home Court Advantage: Preparing Your Children to Be Winners in Life8 reviews
Kevin Leman
Focus, 2005
Practical advice for parents
Dr. Leman thinks that most of today's families are stressed out and need to step back and evaluate why. I bought this book hoping to discover practical ways to become a more effective parent and give my kids the "home court advantage". I learned tons about how to do this, and more.
Leman's bottom line approach points to the fact that we are trying to do too much these days, and that a stable ...
