The latest book by Greg Behrendt, author of the multi-million plus copy bestseller ‘He’s Just Not That Into You’, is another hilarious, wry and wise take on relationships and how to move on when one goes sour.
‘He’s Just Not That Into You’ is more than a book. It’s a revolution. The phrase, coined by Behrendt for an episode of ‘Sex and the City’, has now entered the language: it features in ads, it’s referred to in newspaper headlines and it has spawned spin-off spoof books and more.
‘It’s Called A Break-up Because It’s Broken’ promises to do this and more. It will help you get over anyone and move on. Behrendt’s voice is unique – combining tell-it-like-it-is advice with humour and the ‘guy’s eye view’. The book is filled with solid advice to help you let go of your ex – for example: ‘It’s 3 am, the bottle of wine is empty, do you really want to make that call?’
Each insightful chapter is complemented with a Q-and-A with Greg on what he’s thinking, case studies, and games. Greg and Amiira tackle tough issues such as break-up sex, how not to lose your friends during a break-up, and 10 great places to cry. It’s the ultimate read and reference for anyone who has ever been in a relationship.

This newest edition of Penelope Leach’s much-loved, trusted, and comprehensive classic–an international best seller for twenty-five years, with nearly two million copies sold in America alone–encompasses the latest research and thinking on child development and learning, and reflects the realities of today’s changing lifestyles.
In her authoritative and practical style, Leach responds fully to parents’ every concern about the psychological, emotional, and physical well-being of their children. She describes, in easy-to-follow stages from birth through starting school, how children develop: what they are doing, experiencing, and feeling. And she tackles both the questions parents often ask–What does a new baby’s wakefulness or a toddler’s tantrum mean?–and those that are more difficult: How should new parents time their return to work, choose day care, tell a child about a new baby or an impending divorce?
Whatever the concern or question, Your Baby and Child supplies the information, encouragement, and reassurance every parent-to-be or new parent needs.

Raising and Praising Girls
No rating
One of the biggest lessons we have learnt in the last few decades is that it is valuable, important and effective to praise children. Children respond much better to encouragement than they do to punishment, which is why praising them is considered fundamental in helping them develop self-esteem and strong self-belief. However, the wrong kind of praise can do more harm than good, creating children who lose all sense of rational judgement and are too readily wrong-footed when they meet difficulty.
In this practical, common-sense guide, Elizabeth Hartley-Brewer reveals why understanding and acknowledging girls’ unique sensibilities is the key to knowing how to award them with the right sort of praise. Using insightful, accessible tips, she shows parents how to:
– combat the perfectionism girls are often susceptible to and encourage them to be creative and take risks
– boost girls’ self-confidence and belief in themselves
– be discriminating in their praise in order to maximise its effect
– teach girls not to fear failure but to accept it and learn from it

Battle Hymn For the Tiger Mom
No rating
At once provocative and laugh-out-loud funny, Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother ignited a global parenting debate with its story of one mother’s journey in strict parenting. Amy Chua argues that Western parenting tries to respect and nurture children’s individuality, while Chinese parents typically believe that arming children with skills, strong work habits, and inner confidence prepares them best for the future. Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother chronicles Chua’s iron-willed decision to raise her daughters, Sophia and Lulu, the Chinese way–and the remarkable, sometimes heartbreaking results her choice inspires. Achingly honest and profoundly challenging, Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother is one of the most talked-about books of our times.
