Abstract

Today’s children will grow up to share a diverse society very different from the one their parents knew. In a world where everyone’s individuality is respected, the ability to communicate clearly, express your opinions, and respect others is of utmost importance.
Children can improve their communication skills by thinking about how their words are conveyed to others and learning to use more appropriate language. Some remarks can hurt others even if there is no malicious intent. The key to preventing this problem is learning to recognize such pitfalls in advance and rephrase statements in positive terms before communicating.
In this book, author Takashi Saito shows how to rephrase everyday negative statements into positive ones. He also covers thinking of other ways to say things in various situations, adopting new perspectives, finding good points, building mutual respect, and communicating without causing trouble. Children will learn to express their feelings with confidence and acquire skills that will serve them for a lifetime.
