Review from Healthy Living:

What an adorable book from Sally Huss! Every Child Counts teaches the valuable lesson that every child matters–and that every child can learn to count (at least from 1 to 20). The illustrations are wonderful. My favorite is that of the twenty tennis-playing Ethiopian twins, all with racquets and one with a ball machine. The subtle message is that children come from all parts of the globe and each and every one counts. These are lessons to be read and reread many times over.  For more info on this eBook, Click Here

Review:

Another wonderful book by Sally Huss! I loved the A to Z animal games: A is for American Beaver, B is for Bird, C is for Cat. The games will help every child learn his and her ABCs while also acquiring positive traits. One of my favorite animals is the kangaroo, which teaches children that they should support others who need a hand–a life lesson that will build generous, happy and healthy kids. — Healthy Living

– The bright colors and happy art of Sally Huss dance across these pages and will delight your child time and again.

– The story will tickle your child’s funny bone while the message about trying something new sinks in.

– Talking points are offered to help your child discuss doubts, hesitations and fears.

Being a cow in the middle of a pasture with nothing to do but chew and chew is life of our heroine.  She can’t possibility think that she could do anything else.  With delightful invitations from one animal after the next, she still can’t fathom doing other than what she has always done…until a feisty chicken arrives and challenges her to jump over the moon.  The chicken has the formula for accomplishing any dream.  Every child would be equally happy to learn the secret.  Lots of fun!  View in our online store here.

Parents and educators agree that there is a need for tools to help build positive character traits in children. Now they have it in this whimsically illustrated book, A BOAT FULL OF ANIMALS (An Invaluable Book of Values.)

Using animals to represent desirable qualities, children are invited to play a different animal game each day for 30 days. Each game leads a child to experience the attribute the animal represents. For example: the cat cleans up after herself; the giraffe stretches his greatness; the bird makes sweet sounds; the dog is a best friend. Once experienced, a child takes ownership of that quality or skill and places that animal on board his or her imaginary boat within himself.

Fun to play, these games help children develop a greater sense of self-appreciation, awareness of others, and a thirst to grow in ways of kindness, helpfulness, patience, gratefulness, truthfulness, respectfulness, etc.

These are fun character building games and will lead to happier, more self-confident children. And, of course, the better our children, the better our world!

Dick Enberg – CBS and ESPN Sports: “Loved the book. I’ve seen Sally Huss play this great game of tennis. She caressed the ball, while fully embracing the experience. Her style and good form are expressed in her EIGHT GOLDEN RULES FOR HOW TO PLAY YOUR BEST TENNIS. It’s an extension of her proven championship play. The message in her book is direct, kind, respectful, and in its wonderous simplicity, as sharp as a backhand winner down the line. Game, Set and Match, Ms. Huss! Oh My!”

Mary Carillo – CBS and ESPN Sports: “Sally Huss has written a simple, sparkling gem of a book. It is wise and gentle, and gives to tennis players what the great UCLA coach John Wooden gave to basketball players with his Pyramid of Success. If you do what Sally suggests you will be more than a better player, you’ll be a better person. Perhaps her book should be called, “Eight Golden Rules for How to Live Your Best Life.”

Billie Jean King: “Tennis is a lifetime sport and fun for players of all ages. In EIGHT GOLDEN RULES FOR HOW TO PLAY YOUR BEST TENNIS, Sally Huss shows you how to get the most out of your game and how much fun playing tennis can be.”

William Kellogg, President, Southern California Tennis Association: “I just had the pleasure of reading Sally Huss’ newest addition to tennis literature: EIGHT GOLDEN RULES — For Young Players of All Ages (I love the byline.) I truly enjoyed it, from start to finish, and there is no question in my mind that she has captured the essence of the game. It takes most people a lifetime to figure out that welcoming challenge and learning to enjoy your time on the court leads to playing your best tennis and loving the sport.”  (More Info)
