One of the toughest places to combat excessive consumerism is with today's children. Advertisers spend millions of dollars and employ teams of child psychologists to convince our children to constantly want and collect more stuff. Some youth advertisers actually call parents "gatekeepers," whom they must circumvent to reach the kids. Of course we're gatekeepers We're parents It's our job to protect and nurture, to help our children grow into healthy, confident, and caring adults. Fortunately, there are many ways to do this, even in our materialistic culture. One important way is through education. The lesson of this book is best expressed in this inspirational quote by Lionel Shriver: "A lot of people get so hung up on what they can't have that they don't think for a second about whether they really want it."This well-written and inspiring story will help you to teach your children an important way of thinking with regard to jealousy, greed, and materialism. The Juice of Life is an entertaining read before bedtime, with the whole family, or as self-reading for older children. Additionally, it is a great resource for teachers and counselors to share with individual students or in a class. With vibrant, delightful illustrations and easy-to-digest lessons, children will learn of a life that is much happier and richer-in health, family, and friendship
