246 p.; 0.92" x 9.53" x 6.42". Every day, children are confronted with a variety of problems, from starting school to losing a friend, from having a nightmare to feeling humiliated. Recognizing the importance of successfully handling ``life's little miseries, '' Lynch-Fraser provides an excellent guide for parents and teachers of children ages three to 12. She identifies a number of these daily dilemmas and examines their characteristics and psychological implications. In the most useful sections of the book, she suggests methods for helping children to develop constructive coping strategies and problem-solving techniques. She effectively argues that these skills will directly enhance their self-concept, lifelong development, and ability to address the ``bigger'' issues in life should they arise. This accessible, thought-provoking, and insightful book reflects the latest research in child development. Recommended for public and school libraries with parent-child collections. --Linda Cullum, Lake Superior State Univ. Lib., Sault Sainte Marie, Mich.
