Mimi's Strategy: What to do when you want to pick up the baby

by Linda Goudsmit, Xavier Pom (Illustrator)

Overview

Hildy's Aunt Tati and Uncle BeBop bring little baby Oyyie over to visit. Hildy really, really, really wants to pick up baby Oyyie, but the answer is always NO! What is Hildy supposed to do?

MIMI'S STRATEGIES are educational and offer young children a universal new way of solving their problems and having their needs met. The stories are short and simple with the emphasis on the main character's growth outward in concentric circles from her nuclear family setting to her broader school environment. Learning to think strategically rather than reacting emotionally is a valuable problem solving skill that will empower any child throughout his/her life. Competence is the mother of self-esteem. Being resourceful, thinking independently, and behaving assertively are behavior traits that motivate children toward individual thinking, achievement, compassion, and fairness on their journey to adulthood.

The Collapsing American Family: From Bonding to Bondage and her newest book, Space Is No Longer the Final Frontier—Reality Is, complete Linda's quadrangle of insightful books that connect the philosophical, ideological, political, and psychological dots of globalism's War on America and individual sovereignty.
