Such a helpful book!

Narcissistic Lovers: How to Cope, Recover and Move On

5 reviews
Cynthia Zayn, Kevin Dibble

New Horizon Press, 2007

VERY helpful!!
Had a very painful breakup with a narcissist, whom I had once fondly thought of as "just a little vain". Could not make any kind of sense how this man I thought was everything I ever wanted and would have bet any amount of money felt the same about me, exhibited such a profound shift in behavior after 6 months. He went from loving, devoted, and committed to cold, critical, and most ...

New Horizon Press, 2005

Wonderful Book for Children Who Miss Their Moms!
I have a 3 year-old daughter who had a hard time adjusting to leaving me and going to pre-school. I have read "The Kissing Hand", a sweet book, but this one is much more specific to the feelings that children can have when they don't want to leave their Moms. My daughter loved the Honey Bee character. The book helps children to help themselves and it tells you exactly how to do it. The ...

Great relationship book!

I'm Grieving as Fast as I Can: How Young Widows and Widowers Can Cope and Heal

Linda Feinberg

New Horizon Press, 1994

The only book I found that speaks directly to YOUNG widows
You are not alone and you will survive. These two messages come through loud and clear in this excellent book. Much of the content is inspired by the author's interactions with her group for young widows and widowers, and it covers a lot of territory. For me, after losing my husband when I was 48, this was the only book that did not make me feel like I was "pretty much alone" in this ...

Janet Hull

New Horizon Press, 1999

Very helpful, worth the read.
I was having thryoid problems after my second daughter was born. I was drinking Diet Dr. Pepper for an energy boost every day. This book caught my attention because of the author's thryoid disfunction. I read the book and stopped using aspartame. My hair is no longer falling out, and my engergy and thryoid levels are back to normal. My 3 year old daughter is epileptic, and several months ...

Murder in Mayberry: Greed, Death, and Mayhem in a Small Town

New Horizon Press, 2008

Real Page Turner
Murder in Mayberry is, indeed, a "page turner"; especially for anybody (like myself) who followed the actual crime story as it unfolded. Mary and Jack have taken us "behind the scenes", so to speak, and filled in the gaps that media reports didn't include. Thank you for sharing this tragedy from your vantage point as family members.

New Horizon Press, 1997

excellent teaching tool
I am an elemetary school teacher, and this book has been helpful in classroom discussions on self esteem.

I recommend this work.

Stop Bullying Bobby!: Helping Children Cope with Teasing and Bullying

Dana Smith-Mansell

New Horizon Press, 2004

Right on Target
I like the way the author presents a story about a girl who feels compassion for a classmate who is being bullied. So often people stand by helplessly and ignore situations like this. The child doesn't want to tattle but what she sees is so wrong she must confide in her parents. The teacher and the counselor become involved. The counselor has children participate in a puppet show where children ...
