Reach for this book when your child is acting out, interrupting, or performing 'attention-seeking' behaviors that leave you feeling frustrated or exhausted. It is a direct and practical guide designed to help children understand that the desire for attention is a natural human need, but that there are healthy and unhealthy ways to fulfill it. The book uses relatable scenarios to explain why children might feel ignored and provides actionable steps for them to ask for what they need effectively. By addressing the root cause of the behavior rather than just the behavior itself, Joy Berry helps parents shift from discipline to coaching. It is an ideal resource for families navigating sibling rivalry or transitions where one-on-one time has become scarce. The simple language and clear illustrations make it accessible for preschoolers while providing enough logic to satisfy elementary-aged kids.
