The author of this book works in the music and performing arts industry and is a former anorexic, volunteer worker and an enthusiastic advocate of youth restorative courses. In this book, she has devised eight lesson plans that focus on inspiring , interactive confidence building games, discussions and assembly ideas. Its core principles relate to letting go of comparison, celebrating differences, embracing mistakes and creating big dreams.
Chapters include:
- I am One of a Kind
- Same but Different
- Don’t Worry, Be Happy
- Speak Life
- The Show: I am one of a kind
The author has also provided resources that illustrate points in the text.
This is an interesting and creative approach to supporting the development of self-esteem and Babooram indicates that the chapters should ideally be followed in the order they are printed in, to achieve the greatest impact.
Full of energy!
